FC Utrecht's Oar calm about World Cup chances

FC Utrecht winger Tommy Oar is remaining calm about his chances of being included in Australia's World Cup squad.

The 18-year old, who recently signed with the Dutch club from the Brisbane Roar, is being touted as a future star of the Socceroos but for now is just going about his business and is not expecting anything leading up to the World Cup in South Africa which commences in June.

"I'm not really expecting to go," Oar said. "Obviously you dream of going to the World Cup. I'm no different but I guess there's so much competition for places."
