New Zealand Qualified for the Soccer World Cup
Not bad for a country with 4 million people and where rugby union is very much the national sport.

In qualifying what the players lacked in skill and technique they made up for with guts and determination and there is a lesson in that for all of us.

Now while I don't take big juice bets, in NZ's pool at the World Cup there will be one heavyweight team. One of the safest bets in sports betting history NZ will lose

Probably still not as safe a bet as the All Blacks choking in the upcoming rugby world cup

You might have to hand in your New Zealand citizenship if the natives find out about that.
