I think this case will be under the observation of Fifa for sure.” This is a new story, a new chapter in football, which is for sure. “Apparently two players on the pitch they exchanged words … the New Zealand players, they decided to support his teammate as it is obvious all our team decided to support our player. “They abandoned the game,” said the Qatar manager, Carlos Queiroz. To hear the details of the allegations that are being made by this All Whites team, I can completely understand why this action has been taken.”īoxall is of New Zealander and Samoan heritage. To garnish this reaction from him really did raise my eyebrows. The commentator Jacob Spoonley, who won two caps for the All Whites as a goalkeeper, said Boxall, the captain of the MLS side Minnesota United, was “a man of huge integrity, of tolerance and patience. The captain, Joe Bell, was seen remonstrating with Schüttengruber as they left the field for half-time, before the All Whites made the decision not to return. The friendly was played at Sonnenseestadion, in Ritizing in Austria, and officiated by the Austrian referee Manuel Schüttengruber. New Zealand led the match through Marko Stamenic’s 17th minute strike.
