That being said, kind of sad that either Ronaldo or Ibra will not be on WC '14. | ||

We pull through against good teams, don't know if we can handle the pressure of being the favorites. | ||

Time Difference is mad :S New Zealand go over to play in Mexico, a nice Flight Time of 16 hours 38 minutes to then have to play 90minutes of football. To then fly 16hours back re adjust to time zone then to play again. All in the space of 6 days xD Then of course Mexico have the same issue, they play, then have 6days to do a 16hours flight and adjust to a timezone close to 14hours ahead or something. And it being like 30 degrees of heat xD Going be mad game  | ||

They have made ro16 for something like 5 WCs in a row, but that streak could very well snap if they qualify. | ||

But in qualifiers they were as woeful as their sneaking into 4th place in the 90+ min of the last game suggests, and if they didn't have a whole half year to prepare I would have picked them to be bottom of whatever group they ended up in. | ||

The weird thing to me, is that the manager called up zero players who play their club football in Europe. http://www.femexfut.org.mx/portalv2/aspx/WEB_DetalleNoticia.aspx?pnIDNtca=41724 | ||

They aren't even on TV here in the US, only on ESPN's streaming, except for the second leg of Sweden vs. Portugal. | ||

The manager is from that team as well. IF he stays (lol) he'll be getting players from Europe and stuff. | ||

Also according to them, the reason is also that the travel schedule from Europe ->Mexico (where altitude is also a factor)->NZ would be a nightmare and they would never be their best. | ||

Also your Uruguay vs. Jordan start time isn't right cause the game is already at half time but your post says it doesnt start for 5 hours still | ||

It said UTC-5 or something. Wiki doesn't have auto timezone correction does it? It best not lol I updated the list, only a few different kick off times. Most notably iceland vs croatia xD instead of 7pm GMT it is now 5pm GMT Jordan 0-3 Uruguay Pereira (24') Stuani (42') Lodeiro (70') 75minutes played Miss of the season in this game has happend as well. Jordan player got inside the 6 yard box was deemed to be 4 yards from goal. Ball at his feet, goalkeeper not in the shot. Crowd are CELEBRATING, and he puts ball a yard wide of the far post.... Supposed to be really bad, i'll look for a GIF/YouTube of it when i can xD | ||
