Cool. Still a chance of another Bahrain night.

Was thinking yesterday, even Peru game in Wellington was a big highlight for me. White noise chanting 'we want Wood', as down our end the big fella was trying to prove to the AWs trainer his dodgy hammy was okay. Then coming on with 20 mins to play, and starting to make the Peruvians really doubt themselves. Them feeling the pressure of 36 years, and their great fans going a little quiet/anxious.  

Thomas's shot whistling past the post. Then being so exhausted that he skanked his cross into the box where Wood lay with just one defender and the keeper. A few 'if onlys'.

That's my memories anyway, the sort of top quality knife edge football that we so so seldom see live in NZ.

So thank fudge we get at least one chance to have a quality AWs game in NZ over 4 years!!  Hopefully all the guns are injury free and we avoid the CONEMBOL pot.
