Interesting to know. Hot off the press in the Dimsum Daily.
He actually has 10 caps for the Hong Kong senior international side. He's cap tied with them.

He played 2021 Qatar World Cup qualifiers against Bahrain (4-0 loss), Iraq (0 - 1) & Iran (3-1 loss). All 3 games in Bahrain in the Covid travel restriction days.

Last year he scored goals against Cambodia & Afghanistan in Asian Cup qualifying. Hong Kong qualified for the Asian Cup (2nd in their group behind India) and will be in a group with UAE,  Iran & Palestine.

So watch out for the Kiwi in the Asian Cup next January! He didn't play HK's most recent games in the Sept window, so hopefully he's still in the mix. In Soccerway he goes under Matt Orr.

We have a Kiwi Messi. Can we rename this guy the Kiwi Ronaldo!!

PS. Wonder is Calvin Harris would be eligible for Hong Kong? He lived there from age 10 to about age 14. He's never going to play for England, and Asian Cup will be in the MLS off season.
