It sucks... but we took Champness, and they took him. Happens all over the world.
NZ football doesn't really offer much comparatively... how many games have we played internationally in the last 10 years minus the Oceania sides... 10 - 15? Its pathetic really!

Since our last game at the 2010 World Cup against Paraguay all those years ago now we've played 60 times (bit of a surprise there eh 😬 I thought it was in the 40's myself). Of which we've played OFC counterparts 22 times - 17 wins, 4 draws and 1 loss. I've counted the 0-0 against PNG that we won on penalties as a draw.
Other worldwide counterparts, well, not so good - 5 wins, 10 draws and 23 losses.
In that same time period, our next opponent Curaçao have played 80 matches.
After that.
Bahrain, 163...
