Cahill's homecoming fuels fan fervor in A-League (The Associated Press)
Organizers hope the homecoming of local hero Tim Cahill will fuel enthusiasm for Australian football's A-League which opens its 12th season on Friday. Cahill has joined Melbourne City after playing overseas for the past 20 years - at Millwall, Everton, New York and for the past four years in China - while remaining one of Australian football's favorite sons. While the television audience for the league has grown by almost 50 percent since 2011, it is not yet as popular as other domestic football competitions including the Australian rules Australian Football League and the National Rugby League.
