	Australian Football News - Mark Viduka :: Soccerphile
		Viduka was in imperious mood against China over the weekend in what was his first Socceroos appearance since the World Cup exit to Italy nine months ago.
		Viduka didn't ultimately find the net in his 76 minutes on the pitch - one of the problems is he does so infrequently (six times in 38 internationals).
		Viduka might only be in his early thirties, but the retirement age for Australians isn't always much higher given the weight of travelling required for most international fixtures.

	Viduka rewarded with captaincy - Soccer - Sport - theage.com.au
		Mark Viduka leads the Socceroos for the first time tonight.
		FOUR years ago a dejected Mark Viduka, still trying to come to terms with Australia's World Cup losses to Uruguay and Iran, publicly doubted whether he would subject himself to the possibility of a third disappointment by going into the Socceroos' next World Cup crusade.
		While Viduka has recovered from the debilitating hamstring problems that caused him to miss six months of English Premier League soccer this year, Hiddink has deep concerns over the availability of Harry Kewell.

	Mark Viduka (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Mark Viduka (born October 9, 1975 in Melbourne) is an Australian football (soccer) striker of Croatian and Ukrainian descent.
		However, Viduka's often lackadaisical attitude infuriated supporters, and a widely-reported quote where he announced that he was "playing to only about 70 per cent of my capacity up here [Scotland]" did not endear him to either the fans or his fellow team-mates.
		Viduka's debut season at Boro was initially impressive but then tarnished by injuries and he will be hoping that he makes more regular appearances in 2005/2006, although the club has augmented its striking options by signing Aiyegbeni Yakubu from Portsmouth.

		Alan Smith and Mark Viduka have been doing very well and I didn't expect to get my chance so soon, but luckily things have gone well for me. The only unfortunate thing is that I won't be able to play in the Champions League as I've already played once in the competition for Inter.
