Australia vs. Greece: Jedinak impressed by Socceroos' next generation

Ange Postecoglou gave several promising Australia players a taste of international football, leaving captain Mile Jedinak impressed.

Australia will face Greece at Etihad Stadium in Melbourne on Tuesday in the second of their two-game international friendly series.

The hosts got the better of Greece in the first game in Sydney on Saturday, with Mathew Leckie scoring a stoppage-time goal to seal a 1-0 win at ANZ Stadium.

While most of the focus was on the poor playing surface, which Australia coach Ange Postecoglou described as "embarrassing", the 50-year-old used the game to give plenty of playing time to several up-and-coming stars.
