By 1967 he was the captain of the national team, and he played a starring role in Australia’s victory in the 1967 Vietnam National Day tournament, Australia’s first international trophy, won in a war ravaged Saigon. In 1969, he led the Aussies on a gruelling World Cup campaign, where Australia took on Japan, South Korea, Zimbabwe and Israel in an exhaustively hectic qualifying series, losing out on qualifying for the 1970 World Cup at the last hurdle. In 1970, he captained the Australians on an extensive tour of Asia and Europe, which included memorable victories against the likes of Iran, Israel and Greece, before a 15 month break from the national team due to a bad knee injury. Warren was a key member of the first Australian team to qualify for the [[FIFA World Cup|World Cup]] finals. The Socceroos competed at the [[1974 FIFA World Cup|1974 World Cup]] in Group A with [[Germany national football team|West Germany]], [[East Germany national football team|East Germany]] and [[Chile national football team|Chile]]. Warren played in the 2-0 loss to East Germany, where he suffered a foot injury which ruled him out of Australia’s two remaining World Cup games. Australia's sole point came from a 0-0 draw with Chile. After playing 62 internationals for Australia, Warren retired from the national team. ===Statistics=== * A internationals: (1965–1974) 42 games (6 goals) * Other internationals: (1967–1974) 20 games (3 goals) * All internationals: (1965–1974) 62 games (9 goals) - Captain (1967–1970) * All games (and goals): ** 1965 [A int] Cambodia, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Malaysia ** 1967 [A int] Scotland, Scotland, New Zealand (1 gl), South Vietnam (1 gl), Singapore, Malaysia, South Korea (1 gl), Indonesia, Singapore, Malaysia ** 1967 [Non-A] Jakarta XI ** 1968 [A int] Japan ** 1969 [A int] Greece, Greece, Greece, Japan, South Korea, Japan, South Korea, Rhodesia, Rhodesia (1 gl), Israel, Israel ** 1970 [A int] Iran, Israel, Greece, Mexico ** 1970 [Non-A] Kowloon Bus Company, South Vietnam Army, New Caledonia (1 gl), New Caledonia, Jardine Sports Club, Macao (2 gls), Ogheb, Tehran XI, Hapoel, Greece B, Luton Town, Manchester City, League of Ireland ** 1972 [A int] Indonesia, New Zealand (1 gl), South Vietnam, South Korea, Philippines (1 gl) ** 1972 [Non-A] South Vietnam U-23 ** 1973 [A int] Bulgaria, New Zealand, Iran, Iran, South Korea ** 1974 [A int] Indonesia, East Germany (World Cup Finals) ** 1974 [Non-A] Ferencvaros, Ferencvaros, St Gallen, Young Boys, Xamax Neuchatel --> === International goals === {| class="wikitable" style="font-size:95%;" ! # !!
