HARRY Kewell will be among the Socceroo substitutes for the clash with the USA but coach Pim Verbeek remains uncertain whether to risk the player.
Verbeek is expected to field nine of his first-choice XI in the friendly in Roodepoort, the same starting line-up from the 1-0 win over Denmark.
Brett Emerton (calf) will miss out but Kewell is among the substitutes.
He has trained strongly for the past two days as he battles to overcome groin issues.
"Harry is in the 10 players (substitutes) - maybe he will play, maybe not," Verbeek told AAP.
"I will make up my mind tomorrow."
Brett Holman has been rested because of soreness, while Carney missed Friday's session because of a shoulder knock picked up the previous day.
But Verbeek says all three will return to full training after the USA clash and will be ready for the match against Germany.
"They are struggling a little bit but with some small injuries, but they will be ready after the game to be 100 per cent at training," Verbeek added.
"I am not concerned at all (about their fitness).
"This (Friday) was not a normal pre-match training session - we tried to fix the last percentages of our physical fitness."
