The U17's are in Korea now.

I believe they were playing a warm up game against Korea today. How did that go?
I think they got a game against a Korea School team in the next couple of days as well.
 
Its close to their 18th August kick off against Brazil. I can't wait.

If we build it, they will come...

Holy mackeral ......

- check also the report on nzsoccer.com - not sure how the team could be "over confident" unless they believed the opportunities they created in the 1st half could of been 4-5 goals lead the team to believe they were comfortable...that was only until Korea starting converting their opportunites.

Still like the NZ Warriors we need to "keep da faith" and hope this is a minor gliche to the tournament.

Theres is not doubt about it though - it is going to be tough!

So I will play the positive optimist here and say if we converted at least half of those opportunites in the 1st 20 mins (as per nzsoccer site) then that would have changed the complexion of the game (.....as I sit here with my fingers crossed.....)

I guess the fact that NZ made about 7 substitues during the game would have disrupted things a bit. Lets hope our starting XI against Brazil is a bit stronger. With 1 or 2 subs.
 
Are you guys getting any coverage of the tournement on Sky in NZ?
