am i right in saying that we are unbeaten at the hutt rec?
 
i remember the young brazil game - they were amazing, but couldn't score and i'm pretty sure we beat them.
 
we beat oz 1-0 in the mud thanks to a classic fred de jong mud slide over the goal line.
 
and i think the china score was 2-0.
 
time to reinstate the hutt rec as an international venue i reckon...


Shattering News Reg22. Back in about 1968 or so, a Scottish Under 23 team beat NZ about 4-1.
I recall Gary Lake and Earle Thomas playing for NZ, and that's about it.

Trivia Question.

The wellington game was really really bad, hence why I was made to wear my ski gear!!
 
I'm sure someone must have video of the two matches they can post on here, would love to see it.  Perhaps the TVNZ archive?

I went to that game at Western Springs too. I remember thinking that it will be good to look back later and see what famous Brazilians I saw that day, but I can't rember who any of them were!!! I remember there was a bit of media coverage about some young striker that was destined for big things. Anyone have the names of that team by any chance?
