Oceania Federation is making a statement. They got screwed with only team being allowed in. New Caledonia should be at the World Cup also. It is a travesty :)

2 points in 2 games by the Kiwis--great heart and effort! Shameful display of diving by the Azzuri.

Terrible diving, and the referee, who seemed to be from Latin America, was buying it. Why not? It's how the game is played in that part of the world (as well as Italy).
