Adam Taggart's participation in Australia's first World Cup qualifier is in question after the star forward was absent from his K-League team's victory with a hamstring injury.
The 26-year-old didn't feature in the squad for Suwon Bluewings' 1-0 win over Jeju United on Friday night less than 24 hours after the Socceroos squad was named, after suffering the niggle seven days prior in a defeat to Gyeongnam.
While Suwon manager Lee Lim-saeng said the injury wasn't serious in his post-match press conference, Taggart's chances of playing in Socceroos qualifier on the road against Kuwait in only 11 days are in doubt - particularly considering his injury history.
