Everything is All White now

Well at least one team playing in white know how to play football. I was in a bar/restaurant when NZ scored v Italy - the Kiwi barman was beside himself. I don't think he could quite believe it.

What I don't understand is how a team made of some professionals, some 'unattached' players, one who didn't seem to make the grade at AFC Wimbledon, and some who are amateurs and have jobs in the real world could hold their own against the current World Cup holders, yet the multimillionaire 'stars' who play in the 'greatest league in the world' could barely string a pass together against a very weak Algeria.

Go NZ, go All Whites - I guess that's why it's the beautiful game.
