The Australia national team, known as the Socceroos, has qualified for six consecutive FIFA World Cups since 2006, reaching the Round of 16 in 2006 and 2022. Their greatest regional success came after joining the Asian Football Confederation, winning the 2015 AFC Asian Cup on home soil. Currently led by coach Graham Arnold, Australia remain one of Asia’s strongest sides and are well-placed in the 2026 World Cup qualifiers.
