On the 14^th of November the New Zealand All Whites had there first opportunity to make it to the soccer world cup since 1982. My flat mates had an extra ticket and invited me to enjoy the intense energy of Westpac stadium. After a header goal and a saved P.K. the All Whites beat Bahrain in a 1-0 victory and won a ticket to the 2010 world cup in South Africa. The atmosphere in the stadium made this one of the most enjoyable sporting events I have ever been to.
