Some international team wants us anyway - pretty intrigued - will it be a World Cup Finalist or a fellow team that failed to qualify and is lacking games? I'm picking Chile wanting to prepare for playing Australia since we have had a relationship with their FA for twenty years, last playing them in a friendly in June 2010 in South Africa, with their Olympic side playing here 2008, both their senior and Olympic sides visiting Auckland for games c. 2000 and us playing in their FA's Centennial Tournament in Chile 1995 etc.

I remember the Football Kingz playing Chile's Olympic side in Auckland in a televised game on the eve of the 2000 Sydney Olympics with over-age player the legendary Ivan Zamorano scoring in a 1-0 win. Very tight game & one of the Kingz' finest moments.

I'm picking Chile wanting to prepare for playing Australia since we have had a relationship with their FA in the past with their Olympic side playing here as recently as 2008, both their senior and Olympic sides visiting Auckland for games c. 2000 and us playing in their FA's Centennial Tournament in Chile 1995 etc.
