    Not that bad of a result against China for the men, a hostile environment, and a draw. A win would have been great though......... Too bad there was no Haka pre-game, that would have really got the crowd going :D

    Same for the Women, not an awful start to the tourney I'd say...

    Yeah, that was pretty good for the women. I wish them (and the men) well. Are thye still using J. Bindon for goal?

    Yes, NZ soccer finally does something halfway decent, and no one gets on here to comment on it. They looked good against China, and the ref was hell-bent on handing the game to the host team. A draw was a fabulous result under those conditions, although they could have easily won.

    Only four countries will be represented in both men's and women's soccer at 2021 Olympics: host Japan, Australia, New Zealand and Brazil.
