Well spotted. I presume South Sudan play their games at a neutral venue given the country is in a nasty civil war. And surprised they are playing Sudan, given there was a long running war before they were granted full independence.

Big Sudanese/Sth Sudanese community now in Melbs. With quite a few AFL and NBL basketballers (they tend to be tallest) now from that background, starting to pop up.

Oli Whyte has a Sth Sudanese team mate at Haka in Finland, but he's not in the above squad.

Mo Awad who bounced around various NZ & Aus clubs (may have trialled at the Nix??) is now playing in Malta, and has 8 caps for Somalia
