JUNE 24
In addition to the 0-0 with Paraguay in South Africa, and the 4-0 pasting by Portugal at Confeds, this date sees two other All Whites fixtures in history.
Back in 1999, the build up to Confeds 99 continued with a 2-2 draw in Muscat against Oman, thanks to a towering Vicelich header and a finish from a jubilant Ngata. Then in 2001, the second leg of the World Cup playoff against Australia in Sydney saw an even bigger loss than Wellington, although we at least got on the scoreboard this time...
Made the mistake of watching that 2nd leg AWs v Socceroos game. Ugly viewing. Thank fudge we don't play like that anymore.
