Does anyone know what effect this has on Olympic qualification?
the new zealand mens hockey team have done well at the world cup considering they are only ranked 9th in the world. New Zealand will play australia in 3 testes next year for olympic qualification and if they win, they qualify but if not they will attend a world olympic qualifing similar to the tournament they played in madrid before the athens olympics. Go to http://www.olympic.org.nz for qualification information
Good work Olympus. In other words, they are off to a qualifying tournament.
By the way, I believe they can still play in the semis of the WC if they beat Australia. Unlikely, but not impossible.
i think so, but you are right if new zealand beats australia tonight they are into the semi finals!! Australia has injury concerns so if we play our best then we have a chance
