Iredale, who plays for another Dutch side SC Heerenveen, was in the last Socceroos team camp while Pasquali is a bright prospect who made his A-League debut aged 16.

Also included in the squad are A-League players Nathaniel Atkinson (Melbourne FC) and Apostolos Stametelopoulos (Adelaide United).

The Young Socceroos recently completed a training camp on the Sunshine Coast in Queensland and will travel to Singapore on Sunday to continue their build-up to the tournament.

Only 11 players, including Sagan Tosu forward Kyosuke Tagawa, remain from the squad which breezed through qualifying with successive wins over Mongolia, Singapore and Thailand late last year.

The Japanese attack will also feature Takefusa Kubo, who starred at the 2016 AFC U-16 Championship, scoring four goals as Japan reached the semi-finals.

A total 22 of the 23 players are on the books of professional clubs in Japan, with towering 18-year-old defender Kenedeiebusu Mikuni - a student at Aomori Yamada High School - the sole exception.

The 50-year-old mentor - who led the Southeast Asian nation to a historic semi-final appearance at the 2016 championship - is leaving no stone unturned in an extensive preparation for this year's Finals, with camps arranged in Vietnam, Japan and Qatar.

The squad will travel to Nghe An Province for a fitness focused nine-day camp on Saturday, before spending 12 days in Japan from August 28.

That will be followed by a journey to Qatar where the side will face the hosts as well as 2017 South American Youth Football Championship winners Uruguay in a tournament which will provide vital match preparation ahead of the October Finals.

Having taken a 2-0 lead through Awang Muhammad Faiz in the third minute and Nik Akif (18th), Malaysia found themselves trailing following an eight-minute blitz which saw Myanmar scoring three times.

Win Naing Tun hit a quick fire brace in the 23rd and 26th minutes before Myat Kaung Khant gave Myanmar the lead in the 31st.

Hosts Indonesia will be facing two former champions - 2008 winners United Arab Emirates and Qatar (2014), alongside Chinese Taipei, in Group A of the tournament which will be held on October 18-November 4.

“After knowing the draw results, we can start preparing the team to be more focused,” said Sjafri.

The two-time champions and 2016 runners-up were drawn with Tajikistan, China PR and Malaysia in Group D.

“We expect to play against tough teams, but our main goal is to reach the FIFA U-20 World Cup in 2019,” revealed Alghmadi.

“We have to respect all the teams we are playing against, and hopefully we can perform well in this Championship.

“All the teams are competitive, and some of them play fast, others are physically stronger and tougher than our players, but as I’ve mentioned, our aim is go to the U-20 World Cup and we are focusing to claim one of the four spots.”

Saudi Arabia performed spectacularly in the Qualifiers, recording three wins to secure their spot in the Finals as Group D winners.

“The players have been playing together for a while and know one another very well. They followed the tactics of the coach, and our coach knows how to give each and every player their specific task.

“The players performed well (in the Qualifiers), and hopefully by the time we begin playing here in October, we will do better than the qualifiers.”

Indonesia, who will be hosting the prestigious tournament for the third time and having been crowned champions in 1961, will go up against United Arab Emirates, 2014 champions Qatar and Chinese Taipei in Group A.

Defending champions Japan, who earned their first title in the previous edition, will face Thailand, DPR Korea and Iraq, who have won the title five times in Group B.

Twelve-time champions Korea Republic, suffered heartbreak in 2016 when they narrowly missed out on the Knockout Stage due to goal difference, will be aiming to do better against Vietnam, Australia and Jordan in Group C.
