New Zealand open World Cup with no goal against Netherlands via SABCNewsOnline

New Zealand have never been beyond the group stage in four previous appearances at the tournament

The Dutch posed the Kiwi defence no end of problems in Le Havre, but had nothing to show for their dominance until Jill Roord headed in at the back post in the 92nd minute. “We had a game plan and the players adhered to that magnificently. Their effort, courage and discipline were first class,” he told reporters.

“Before the tournament started we said it was a three-game tournament. We’re only a third of the way through.”
