AV (or the proofs) again mixing up 2024 with 2025 with 2026. But good news NZF will be trying to have at least one AWs game in NZ, prior to the World Cup.

Definitely important they try and do so, so the team builds a connection to the fans ahead of our first WC appearance in 16 years.

And yeah if we can help out New Caledonia by the Nix or Auckland FC inviting them to NZ,  later this year for a game(s) that might be an idea. Remembering that there will be bye weeks again for the ALM in season 2025/26.

The All Whites now have six nine-day international windows to prepare for the World Cup, which begins on June 11 next year. The next is in June this year, where they will play Côte d’Ivoire and Ukraine in Toronto. They also have a match scheduled against Norway in Oslo in October and are understood to be playing Poland the same month.

The other two windows this year are in September and November, while the two next year are in March and in June, on the eve of the World Cup. While the All Whites are set to play away for the rest of 2024, NZ Football intends for them to play at home at least once in the first half of 2025 ahead of the tournament.

It is expected the World Cup draw will take place after the November international window.
