Interesting video made by Fifa. Fifa will be giving out more money to FIFA member associates in the period of 2019-2022 Is great for NZF as they will receive 6 million USD plus extras such us 2 million USD for infrastructure projects. This money wil go along way to help us get more matches and ones at home and against top oppositon.

$6M will certainly help. 

But I think attempting to qualify the AWs alone in the last cycle, reportedly cost $8-9M, and the only game at home of note was Peru in Wellington.

With UEFA, CONCACAF & now CAF (Africa) setting up Nations League competitions - availability of "quality" teams for friendlies will be getting thinner on the ground anyway.

If AFC sets up a Nations League, OFC and the AWs will badly somehow need to be a part of it.
