Man City midfielder Alex Robertson earns first Australia call

Manchester City midfielder Alex Robertson received a call up to the Australian national team.

The youngster, who has been a part of City's Elite Development Squad in Premier League 2, is rewarded for his form.

Robertson will get to meet his new Socceroos teammates during the March international break.

The 19-year-old qualifies for Australia through his father, Mark, who also played for the Socceroos.

He could have also played for Scotland, as he was born there, but chose Australia.
