I saw some Pahlavi era flags but no booing of National Anthem.

But knowing FIFA, they probably ensured we could not hear them on the telecast. Hehe

New Zealand are the only OFC team in the comp compared to nine AFC representatives at the World Cup this cycle though.

 

[Captain Haddock]

It is an epidemic in Aus.

Weirdly, there are heaps of so called football fans, who love UEFA and South American teams beating Asian teams!

Times are changing.

Reminds me of the Eurosnobs who will get up/ stay up until bullshit 'o clock to watch their chosen EPL/ Bundesliga/ La Liga side play a mid-table opponent, but don't bother with the A-League because it's "sub-standard"...

Thats coz FIFA is racist, they should give Oceania 9 spots as well...

FMD I come over to this match thread and you two are still at it! I hope I get an invite when you eventually get married.

Anyway, great start by the Kiwis. Elijah Just with a great finish off the back of a really impressive season. Apparently Celtic are looking at him.
