As a proud Australian and staunch Wellingtonian... I endorse the idea of Wellington being part of Australia

Moss is doing very well considering that the Spain's first and second touch as well as their positioning is virtually perfect. Only Torres is about half a body length better than Boyens in front the goal. Damn they are fast and accurate. Much better than the 1982 Brazilian team.

Our defending is poor, we are not picking up runners or even closing down players on the ball. Complete amatuer display so far.

based on historic results by nz against incredible european teams, I guess we're in for around 3 odd goals from here on

Well just as I feared, they blow us off the park with blitz down the wingers in the first 20 minutes and now they spreading the ball all over the place. Targeting both Mulligan and Lochead with no mercy. Now our centre midfield is forced to compressed back into the centre defence giving them plenty of space and time than ever.

No rush for spain to press as hard now being 4-0 up.

Well put it this way, there is very few 50/50 balls to contest. ie no real chance to gain possession of ball. Gaining possession is something we have to learn to do without 50/50 contesting at this level.
