Reid needed to foul there
All Whites vs Peru | Second leg | Thurs 16 Nov | 3:15pm | SS1
fudge.
How wasn't that a hand ball?? FFS this referee is awful
was always coming..stretched us wide then
4 on 4 somehow at the back for the goal.
Well played Hudson
Considering how much we've been defending in depth and numbers why the hell was no one within spitting distance of Farfan?
Still though, doesn't change much really - we're still only a goal from Russia
get Wood on now
Good pressing
get Wood on now
they said he had 60 mins in him - lets see it
We need to get someone man-marking Farfan. He's just wandering around with all the time in the world
Odds of seeing the replay on Barbarouses getting tripped?
just shoot Kosta
Getting a decent amount of set pieces
double save by big stefan - essential to keep us in the game
The bouncing ball play at the front is a nightmare for our attackers
i think hudson will hook lewis at half time and bring wood on
Offside there much? They'll regret that miss.
We really need to change things up in the second half. We are set up appallingly in this half. I don't know what the plan was from Hudson, other than try and tire Peru out by giving them so much ball that they are done for the second half.
Other the number of goals conceded (could have been 0-3) I could have given you the script for this half as soon as I saw the line up.
The Peru manager looks like a creepy music teacher
Hook Kosta as well and put on Brockie(who can defend as well) and Wood..all or nothing now.
Gotta play ball now...throw on Fallon
Wood has to start 2nd half, we get so few chances we need the best striker possible at the front
Wood on for the second half. Goal from a set piece. We're off to Russia.

Easy.
1st half was men against boys.
Lucky to be only be 1 tbh, what was hudsons game plan for this? we are way to defensive and shown no attempt to play football
Remember that time when the other footballing nations used their best strikers as impact players in one of if not the most important game their country has ever seen?
1-1 in stone wall pens
Yep. However us having a PK in the first minute dramatic change to the games feel.
I can understand his decisions - the key to winning this tie was to no concede. 1 goal is all we need!
78-22 possession. I know possession counts for 3/10ths of fudge all, but I can't remember a half so one sided.
Have to bring Wood on now. He is our best chance of a goal and him being on the pitch is not going to increase the chance of Peru scoring
Tuiloma and Mcg together are more hindrance than help defensively. Bring Wood and Rojas on. Brockie later if it's desperate.

As much as I disliked many of Andy Martin's comments and him as a person (generally speaking), I think that flying fudging fighter jets over the opposition team hotel is taking it to a whole different level......
Don't want to start the debate again, we'll have plenty of time to do that whether we go to Russia or not - I just want our boys to win today!
Unlike many here I did not take offence at what Martin said as anyone who's aware of South American football should full well know what was going to happen, just ask Aus. Some of us kiwis are far too thin skinned sometimes, just like many young Brits.

Id keep kosta on for another burst but with wood
Wood!

He's Steven Tyler!
I've got nothing.What the f uck is going on?.It is like a bad dream.
Maybe we just need some luck or something but we don't look like we have a goal in us at the mo.
Marinovich needs a medal for that save
