Apparently we have asked both Solomons and OFC to file one
Not quite:
There is a possibility the Solomons may protest Durante's participation in tonight's match, which would then force Fifa into making a clear call.
Speaking before the game, New Zealand Football chief executive Grant McKavanagh said they were close to resolving Durante's eligibility.
''We're talking with OFC and with Fifa in regards to the right way to ensure that we've got clarity on that,'' McKavanagh said.
''I don't think it's a situation where you want to ask someone to protest you. So we're just trying to figure out the right way to do it. We're closing in on it, put it that way.''

That does make it sound like they are taking a slightly more considered approach, which is good.
To be honest, I think the whole situation is being blown out of proportion anyway. Fred de Jong stated a week or so ago that the only sticking point was whether Dura has lived in NZ for 5 years. Obviously he has for the purposes of getting NZ citizenship, but it can be defined different ways (is it a certain number of days a year etc) so we need FIFA to clarify what they mean for their purposes.None of this matters until November, however. By then Dura will have lived in NZ for a further 6 months so I'm pretty confident that whatever the definition of "lived somewhere for 5 years" turns out to be he will be able to satisfy that condition.
