New Zealand U-23s - Quali Whites

Definitely they are meant to be behind closed doors warm ups only. So we shouldn't expect them to be televised, no. Though weirdly 1,500 locals were at the first game. Presumably someone on the front gate had instructions to weed out Korean, Romanian & Honduran spies!

But socceroos.com.au has daily articles on the Olyroos in Japan, and more.

Of course FFA has more resources/money than NZF, but NZ Football's website is still poor. https://www.nzfootball.co.nz/

Even outside of events like the Olympics, their posting of content can be very random. An article on Kiwis Overseas with their club results etc, and then another one 3 months later. It's almost like someone wakes up one day and says shark, lets write up a quick blurb, it's been awhile.

The All Whites FB page is better https://www.facebook.com/AllWhites/

The Football Ferns have a reasonable one as well.

Honduras’ warm up game vs Japan was televised, and probably in front of a crowd as well, and the Matildas (Australia’s women’s team) have their game tonight televised, so it shouldn’t be impossible for them to do it. If they properly wanted to do behind closed doors to eliminate any potential scouting they wouldn’t have announced the games, and certainly not done updates/allow spectators. 

Before the 2019 U20 World Cup they played two such games, and only mentioned the final result after the game, and the goal-scorers. They even went to the extent of having the players use different shirts to their official squad numbers so that the opposition wouldn’t get an idea of who is who (eg Waine wore 11 instead of his 18, Cacace 17 instead of 13 etc). In Monday’s game you can see they had already printed the names on the shirts, so they can’t have been worried about opposition scouting, it’s probably just that they’ve decided it’s too much effort to stream the games.

Chances of getting a single goal highlight 2 days later?

Anyone know if Aussie made many changes? I see Reno is on the bench again.

they had Rich-Baghuelou (hulking Crystal Palace CB) come in for Deng, and Lachlan Wales inexplicably come in for Pierias

there's clearly a motive I'm not aware of, but as a fan it's pretty disgraceful that NZF and the FFA have taken a step back from the last game - not even providing updates for this game on social media.
