Ufuk Talay’s Sydney FC will be looking to become the second club in Australia Cup history to become back-to-back Champions of the Australia Cup in 2024.
The Sky Blues impressed in the A-League Men following Talay’s takeover, with Sydney’s intense pressing becoming the key feature of a new-look side.
