Reprieved Milligan named in Olyroos squad

10/05/2008 4:49:00 PM.  | 
Olyroos skipper Mark Milligan has been named in Graham Arnold's 21-man squad for this month's pre-Olympic tournament in Malaysia after having his ban reduced for skipping a Townsville training camp.

Milligan had his tournament ban reduced to two matches after Arnold and Socceroos coach Pim Verbeek accepted his apology for opting to forgo the recent camp in favour of trialling in England.

Australia's campaign in the inaugural eight-team tournament, known as the Intercontinental Cup, begins on Friday against Croatia, before group matches against Chile and Ghana.

Olyroos squad: Nigel Boogaard (Central Coast Mariners), Dean Bouzanis (Liverpool FC, England), Mark Bridge (Sydney FC), Adam D'Apuzzo (Newcastle Jets), Spase Dilevski (Universitatae Craiova, Romania), Aaron Downes (Chesterfield, England), Tarek Elrich (Newcastle Jets), Troy Hearfield (Wellington Phoenix), Jason Hoffman (Newcastle Jets), James Holland (Newcastle Jets), Adrian Leijer (Fulham, England), Trent McClenahan (Hereford United, England), Mark Milligan (Uncontracted), Stuart Musialik (Sydney FC), Nikita Rukavytsya (Perth Glory), Matt Simon (Central Coast Mariners), Nikolai Topor-Stanley (Perth Glory), James Troisi (Uncontracted), Tando Velaphi (Perth Glory), Ruben Zadkovich (Derby County- England), Michael Zullo (Queensland Roar).
