New Zealand are 0-0 with Peru at 72 minutes. Great atmosphere in Wellington but pretty dull game on the pitch so far.
edit: game finishes 0-0. Some half chances towards the end but no finish for either team.

Kind of disappointing to see zero goals in both inter-confederation playoffs.
Yeah I'm well aware games in Honduras have been a disaster for Canada and other CONCACAF teams. The Aussies didn't let the crowd get to them though and even managed to quiet things down by controlling the play. I'm really happy with the result but still it was a game they could have won. I'm looking forward to the game in Sydney, if the Roos play as well as they did today they will be in the World Cup.
Are you happy with the All Whites result? Considering it is 10th vs 113th in the world I'd say a draw is positive. It will be very tough for the Kiwis in Peru but at least they have a chance.
