Earlier this month, FIFA announced the playoffs will be single-leg matches at a neutral venue which ended a long tradition of home-and-away contests, which have produced some memorable occasions in New Zealand and been lucrative for NZF, with sold-out games against Bahrain (2009), Mexico (2013) and Peru (2017). FIFA's move was pre-empted by the fixture congestion created by the Covid-19 pandemic, along with the ongoing uncertainty around international travel. This morning's draw means that the top Oceania team after regular World Cup qualifying matches will play the fourth-best side from North America's CONCACAF bracket. ADVERTISEMENT Advertise with NZME.

FIFA trying to impose a 10% cap on agents fees from transfers and a 3% cap on fees from players’ salaries for their ‘services’. I’m assuming FIFA have worked out that this just encourages transfer fee and wage inflation and simply don’t care.
Just had a peep at the current Greatest League in the World table and the top 3 have a combined goal difference of +92...... The teams from 4th to 6th have a combined goal difference of +10..... Not one of the teams from 7th to 20th has a positive goal difference....... You can tell I'm a tad bored with no R's games to talk about.........
