New Zealand, ranked 84th in the FIFA rankings, has 1 point from a draw and a loss in the first two rounds. They must win this game to have a chance of qualifying. The team's total value is only 34.3 million euros. Chris Wood, the attacking core, is the only player in the squad who plays in the top five European leagues.
