The 33-year-old defensive midfielder/central defender was part of the 2015 Australian team that won the AFC Asian Cup. He is a pure veteran of Australian football and has been part of 3 FIFA world cups.

He has been associated with a dozen clubs in the world and is presently plying his trade with the Scottish club Hibernian. He has represented Australia 73 times, scoring 6 goals in between his defensive duties.

The veteran might well be appearing for his last AFC Asian Cup in 2015 and is expected to make this one appearance count for Australia. If Australia has a strong and robust defense, a part of the credit should go to Mark Milligan. The hopes of retaining the AFC Asian Cup within the Australian continent will depend heavily on how well Milligan applies himself to the field.
