Harry Souttar's debut for the Socceroos might have been a dream -- scoring a brace to go with a clean sheet -- but there was still work to be done for the big defender.
Long after spectators had left GIO Stadium in Canberra following Australia's 5-0 demolition of Nepal on Thursday, Souttar and Awer Mabil were separately helping haul equipment onto the team bus through the mixed zone.
Now, less established players in a squad are usually set these kinds of menial tasks. Picking up cones after training, carrying bags. It's something between hazing and a rite of passage.
