Road to Russia 2018

So, NZ v Peru. Soccer/football might not make my top 6 favourite sports, but I still hope we can do it. NZ has never beaten a South American team before but I'd happily take a 0-0 at home and 1-1 away.

I will never understand how FIFA think it's fair that Oceania go through this whole qualifying campaign only for the winners to have to play off against a team from South America. At least the next expansion of the tournament will give them an automatic slot. It'll be interesting to see if Australia try to switch back to Oceania from Asia. They've struggled through the current campaign.

They should stay in Asia. That way they'd get plenty of matches. The All Whites hardly ever play.

Just saw the USA was out. Funny in so many ways. Guess the switch back to an American coach from Klinsmann didn't work. Wonder how salty their comms will be during the tournament.
