00:00We spoke to him in training and he just talked about
00:03You know players having to obviously you want to push them you want to lead by example as the armband
00:07Tends to suggest but players got to rise their own levels at times and we saw he's got to go against a big boy today
00:12who's standing next to Chris Wood expect service into the box and
00:16There have to be switched on because this New Zealand team has no problem getting the ball in the box and creating some issues
00:23Also today Aiden Morris coming into the starting lineup as one of the six changes made from the
00:2911 that started what is to come under the leadership of Maurizio Pochettino, but on the pitch there is a job to be done here
00:37Aiden Morris trying to win that one back, but it's been given away once again here
00:41I think just cast right away trying to close it down booster gives the ball away again and Garvert will strike
00:46Back games Aronson with a bit of an opportunity to play it through Haji right going in the program is able to make the save
00:57Has Aronson in the middle
00:59Balligan was at the back post
01:01It's held up here for Haji right right with a nice touch
01:03But it needed that stoppage time goal to go to extra time against Jamaica in the Nations League semi-final in June
01:09They lost the first game
01:10Rufa
01:13Hang down the rights on his 40th cap
01:15It's over to a Finn Sermon at the back and Joe Bell in midfield Darren Baisley is the head coach of New Zealand
01:22Just towards the edge of the penalty area here steps inside takes a deflection on the way through
01:26And then the block the ball trying to find these little spaces
01:30Haji right was trying to get in around the back, but he was offside there
01:33It's one thing I love about Aronson's game is a lot of times. He's either this false nine or
01:42He's dealing with an early shot goal, it's Ricardo Pepe
01:47One mil for the US
01:50It's Ricardo Pepe with the goal
02:06Now that New Zealand players immediately storming the referee as this pass comes through
02:11Yeah, they believe there's a foul here where Pepe actually shoves the defender out of the way before the ball comes to him
02:17We'll have to have another look at that, but a wonderful finish. Here's a good angle
02:21Yeah, good little interchange here, but the deflection fortunately comes
02:26Watching all those replays the conversation was going on
02:29It was just hard. It was really hard to tell how much contact was there
02:41Pepe's pass to Lund just wasn't quite good enough, and then that's a foul
02:46It was sold short to Christopher Lund. Wright cutting inside. He's got a bit of space here. Can he get a shot away?
02:59That's Haji Wright, time and space for Haji Wright as he lets it fly
03:03Down the right for Fossey, the first-time ball and Pepe got a flip to it. Wright couldn't get there before Crocombe the keeper
03:17And then given away by Rufa
03:19Aronson into the box here for Brendan Aronson. Lund wide on the New Zealand right, McKenzie can head it away
03:27Haji Wright did well
03:30Haji Wright did well
03:37Moosa whips the ball into the middle
03:41In from Aronson to the six-yard box, comes out, Fossey puts it back into the box
03:46Aronson's done really well here, gets into the box, goes down
03:50To be fair, he didn't appeal for anything to the referee. It was more a shout from the crowd
03:55Aronson away. Oh, that's a foul and a yellow card is coming here for Alex Rufa
04:05Chips are both forward from the back as Aronson sends this one in
04:09First touch that is from the debutant, played back inside for Pepe
04:13Just wide
04:15Really well done by Fossey down the right side to create the opening
04:19Fires the ball forward into the path of Pepe down the right side
04:23A wonderful break here from the United States by McKenzie
04:29And now the shot driven in, Turner is able to make the save
04:36Here's the third one
04:39High ball hoisted in towards the back post, Fossey is the first one to meet it
04:42Matthew Carbott rolled it through for Kakace, he steps inside, Fossey recovers
04:48Friends of Aidan Morris in the house tonight, this is Fossey down that right side
04:52Moussa gets the cross in, it took a deflection on the way through, it was wide to the right
04:55He might have a goal, a goal himself!
04:57Oh, that's a good save from Gronkham
04:59Appeals for a penalty there as Balogun is down on the edge of the six yard box
05:04A fizzing strike from Moussa testing the New Zealand keeper
05:11Wide ball in, the head of Balogun
05:13Balogun
05:18Aronson swings it in
05:20Fossey
05:23Lodge driving it towards the top corner
05:31It's up against Rufa, right, gliding into the box, pulls it back
05:34Couldn't find Balogun, comes back towards Morris
05:37The opportunity to impact this game off the bench as he did at the weekend
05:43Lund swings this ball in towards the six yard box
05:46And at the back post, the header is wide
05:49Flag was up for offside anyway so it wouldn't have mattered
05:52But Balogun, Fossey down the right side
05:54And Fossey's done well here, he's into the box, plays it across goal
05:57And out it goes off Nando Pajnico for a corner here for the US
06:01And Fossey has been another bright spot down the left side here
06:04As Lund pushes the ball towards Brendan Aronson
06:07And that has gone out
06:10High ball forward towards Chris Wood
06:14Played 90 minutes against Canada at the weekend on his third US start
06:23Ball swept in towards Pecky on the penalty spot
06:29Lund doing really well on that far side but it's cleared away by
06:32Wood is in the box, this is a chance here for just
06:35Turner has to make the save
06:38The danger not cleared just yet, comes all the way back to Payne
06:44Fossey plays it in towards the edge of the box
06:48Amunek who's actually on loan from Nottingham Forest at Olympiacos
06:53Bakache charging forward, now it comes back towards Balogun
06:56Balogun, denied by Drogba
06:59Drogba
07:05Well those are huge moments, you've got to make the right decision
07:07Given away by Richards here and the shot well wide for Mock
07:15Fossey from distant
07:17Wide for Punisic against Tim Payne on the far side
07:23Richards in the box, McKenzie making a run towards the front post
07:26Punisic swings it in over the top of the head of Chris Richards
07:29Balogun turns on the edge of the box, it's Aronson
07:31Kocan with the save and Peppy can't put the header in
07:35It's out for a goal kick
07:42Wander all across to De La Torre
07:45Punisic from just outside the box, closed down so quickly
07:49Fossey trying to get a header in there to clear it as it comes back here for
07:52Stamnik, Stamnik with that cross into the box
07:54Closed it in towards the edge of the box, Balogun trying to turn it to the path of Christian Punisic
07:58Finally, they find their goal
08:01With a little over 20 minutes remaining
08:03It's Christian Punisic coming in as a substitute
08:07Who makes it 1-0
08:091-0
08:22Just really good movement, wonderful ball
08:25Heading in towards the edge of the box, now it's Balogun!
08:28Parried away by Kocan
08:33They managed to score 3 in the final 20 minutes that night
08:36To win against Trinidad and Tobago in Austin
08:39Christian Punisic looking to add another one here
08:41He has a goal from distance
08:48Christian Punisic with his goal tonight, passing Brian McBride
08:51For sole possession of 5th place on the
08:53Punisic down the left side, Wiley with the cross in!
08:55Balogun trying to get on the end of it
08:59Wiley getting back, gets the head to it
09:01McKenzie has to get a shot of it
09:03And over the top of the keeper and in
09:05And New Zealand have levelled
09:06A fortuitous goal
09:10Ben Wayne, the substitute, takes advantage
09:15And it's 1-1 with 2 minutes left to play
09:19And it starts with, as this ball is played over the top
09:22There's a mistake here on the header
09:25Just chinks it a little bit, obviously that's Freak
09:27That McKenzie goes to clear that and hits off the defender
09:30Just two poor mistakes in a row
