EXCLUSIVE: SOCCEROO star Tim Cahill is eagerly anticipating the A-League Grand Final, where he is backing close friend Archie Thompson to fire Melbourne Victory to glory.
With less than two weeks until the Grand Final in Melbourne, Cahill has been keeping a close eye on the fortunes of his A-League-based teammates.
"I get the A-League round-up and I obviously speak to Moorie [Craig Moore] and text a load of the lads," Cahill told au.fourfourtwo.com. "It's great when we come back into camp to catch-up, but it's also great that we get to watch it here in England."
Speaking as an ambassador of adidas for the April issue of FourFourTwo magazine, Cahill was looking forward to his Socceroo teammates locking hornsĀ over the coming weeks.
"It's exciting as you normally see Sydney FC up the top, in the finals and everyone talking and emphasising on that," he said.
"I'll be going for my mates Archie and Muscat. Sorry Moorie, but I'll be going for Archie and hopefully he'll do my goal celebration!
"If Archie is on form then he will win it single-handedly as that's the type of player he is, he's got goals in him. He is one of the brightest talents to come out of Australia and it puzzles me how he's not playing overseas.
"Archie's a very talented player and a very close friend of mine, so I'm cheering for Arch."
