  • New Zealand may have missed out on a monumental Round of 16 place at the 2010 FIFA World Cup, but they left South Africa with their heads held high. Unbeaten.
    The All Whites had arrived an unassuming side. They left with the respect of the watching football world. This is their underdog story.

      I was 19 years old at the time, the New Zealanders really fell in love with themselves, even in the first match with the Slovaks, showing incredible dedication even with a smaller class.
      In the match with the Slovaks, we equalized the score at 90 + 3 minutes added.
      They were not afraid to play combat football on equal terms with Italy. For a long time we led 1-0 and equalized with a left penalty. I also remember the goalkeeper of the New Zealanders in the match with Italy made a blunder, stumbled, knocking the ball out, but otherwise played flawlessly, and when he could not save, the frame of the ilm goal defenders helped.
      In the match with Paraguay, we also played almost on equal terms. Both of them had chances, and the New Zealanders, if they had scored a goal, could have left the group from the first place (!) even, that would have been the same alignment.
