Carl Valeri experiences football's growth in Australia.
A big welcome at Football in the Capital to Socceroo Carl Valeri. Carl has just been chosen in the first ever Socceroos Asia Cup squad.
Carl will be writing for Football in the Capital every week, as the Socceroos attempt to win their first major international tournament.
We're thrilled to have Carl promoting the game in Canberra and beyond. Over to you Carl.
Hi I'm Carl Valeri
This week I was named in the first Socceroos squad to play in the Asian Cup, so as you can all imagine I am pretty excited.
It still hasn’t hit me. I think as it gets close it will. I feel pretty lazy at the moment because I'm not training. But I think my body needs the rest.
It's great just hanging out with my mates and family. I've heard Australians say Canberra is boring, but I always manage to have a great time when I'm back.
It's awesome that football in Australia is finally getting the attention it deserves. I have never done so much media activity in Australia as I have in the last week.
Paul Ashenden (Sports Editor) and The Canberra Times have been great. They wrote a few articles this week, and I got to do a photo and an article with my old man.
ABC Radio also did an interview.
I'm excited to be writing in this blog. I thinks it's an awesome idea. Its great to know that we have people like Eamonn putting football news into the community.
bye for now
Carl
Ed. Catch Carl's interview next week the day before he flies out to join the Socceroos squad.
