Can't believe they let New Caledonia score

Playoff against the UAE looks likely (and very winnable)....but then they'll be the latest "Asian" team to fall victim to the South American also-ran side in a final game.

And another goal for Chris Woods to extend his all time NZ male international goal scoring record

Could well be Iraq and not UAE. Iraq have the easier final match.

2 goals in fact. Only came on as sub in the 71st min.

North Macedonia 1 Italy 0.
Italy can not qualify.

The mighty Tahiti next!

Just to be pedantic - Chris Woods was an England goalkeeper. Chris Wood is a New Zealand striker.

New Calodonia? Never heard of it so I expect it'll be one of next week's Worldle answers.

Just checked and it looks vaguely phallic with something shooting out of the end.

Old french colonial territory. Very nice little pacific island and well worth a visit (or so I am told by my 2nd eldest/youngest daughter)

no need to be sorry, I originally had Woodsie then put Chris at the front adn didn't remove enough of the backend

I am sure the good people of New Caledonia are looking at a map right now and wondering where Great Britain is and why do they call themselves Great when it’s shape looks like a man riding a big pig.

Christian Karembeu was born and raised on New Caledonia.

I doubt ALL the good people of New Caledonia are stupid. A bit harsh for you to suggest they are.
Bear in mind the island was named after part of the pig riding man.

Nouvelle-Calédonie please. A population less than that of Teesside but slightly warmer.

I very much doubt that too so no, I wasn't suggesting it - but stupid is indeed an apt word as I was thinking the same replying to the original post

I was watching a documentary on Naples and they asked some teenage children the Capital of France, the closest they answered was Brussels. They then pointed out France in Africa.

It's not just here and New Caledonia, which I thought was a pub on Rose Street.
