SAMARA, Russia (Reuters) - Australia should unleash veteran Tim Cahill and tyro Daniel Arzani in their World Cup match against Denmark if they are to have any hope of reaching the knockout stages, according to former Socceroos Mark Bosnich and Stan Lazaridis.

The 38-year-old Cahill and Arzani, who at 19 is the youngest player at the tournament, were both left out of Bert van Marwijk's starting line-up that put up a brave fight before falling 2-1 to France in their Group C opener.
