New Zealand U-23s - Quali Whites
The Japanese teams warm up games have enough interest that ofc the host broadcaster would send broadcast crews to games. An Aussie v NZ game, not so much.
5000 at the game
He should be careful. Who knows the AWs may actually secure some friendlies in the Sept-Oct-Nov FIFA windows later this year (say in Europe). Just as the MLS is getting down to the business end/playoffs. NZF could dig their heels & insist that Boxall either joins an AW squad over those windows, or sits out any MU games that clash.
Goodwill is a 2 way street.
What was that front 3 at that impressive age group WC? Just, Singh and Waine or McCowatt or…? Has to save some of those for the main stage!
South Korea seem to be the main threat.

Chances of getting a single goal highlight 2 days later?

The Olyroos will take on New Zealand for the second time in a week as preparations for the Tokyo 2020 Men’s Football Tournament continue.
Anyone know if Aussie made many changes? I see Reno is on the bench again.

there's clearly a motive I'm not aware of, but as a fan it's pretty disgraceful that NZF and the FFA have taken a step back from the last game - not even providing updates for this game on social media.

they had Rich-Baghuelou (hulking Crystal Palace CB) come in for Deng, and Lachlan Wales inexplicably come in for Pierias

Yeah, I'm not sure why they say there will be updates on twitter, when there aren't. How hard is it to do some twitter updates every 5 or 10 mins...
Agreed, even to say both teams are passing the ball around, no one has the upper hand
my moneys on 0-0.

Cmon boys, let's get the equalizer
Piss poor
I can understand not televised if they're trying to keep team patterns from the eyes of Olympic opponents, but surely text updates aren't too hard

Someone at NZF thinks we were playing the Socceroos.
Two good hitouts. Starting 11 seems set in concrete, and has now had good minutes together as combo. Bring on Korea.
