. Heated BALLS at the ready.

Can't blame them for that. I imagine it is FREEZING in Moscow in December.

If we draw Peru, the players best pack some ear muffs.

What did the pesky Peruvians get up to? I heard about the plane being diverted, but not seen anything else.

I did just type 'Peru antics' into google. I'm still none the wiser, but do now helpfully, know all about Macedonian basketball star Pero Antic

Plane diverted for an unscheduled fuel stop in Chile
Coach driver 'got lost' on the way to the hotel
Training disrupted by Peruvian supporters
Fireworks at 3am and 4am directly outside the hotel before the game
Flypast by the Peruvian airforce at dawn
NZ team coach 'unable' to reach the stadium, the players disembarked among the Peru supporters
Laser pointers shone into the eyes of the goalkeeper and other players during the match

Oh yeah, and the local witchdoctors put a curse on them!

Mostly fairly standard 'hostile away match' stuff then. The ones I've bolded are out of order, but they should have been fully expecting the rest, tbh!

Anyone know a mod, who could help?

An oxymoron, shirley?

The ranking system is far from perfect but how else would you rank the teams?

Simply by using a better world ranking method in the first place.

WTF?

WTF?

WTF, WTF?

When did a team travel to a South American / African / Asian capital and NOT have fans trying to make noise outside their hotel or disrupt their training??

Sorry, I don't follow footy over there and didn't realise it was par for the course.

All Whites coach Anthony Hudson: "We got on the airplane and I asked the stewardess how long it was to Peru and she said, "We're not going to Peru, we're going to Chile!"
