Paul Williams sets the scene for what will feel like a local derby in the western Sydney stands. Such is the size of the Lebanese community in western Sydney that this week's visit of Lebanon to play the Socceroos in the latest round of World Cup qualifiers may at times feel like a home game for the Cedars.
As expected, the Socceroos have won their opening two fixtures: at home to Bangladesh, and away to Palestine. Lebanon drew with those same opponents. Progress to stage three of the qualification process should now be a formality for Australia.
