SYDNEY (Reuters) - Australia coach Ange Postecoglou cut Curtis Good, Josh Brillante and Adam Sarota from his preliminary squad for the World Cup on Tuesday, leaving a 27-strong party to depart for Brazil.

Defender Good suffered a hip flexor injury in Australia's friendly against Ecuador in March and has not played since, while midfielder Sarota has been on the comeback trail after knee reconstruction.
