Defender Michael Boxall will look to become the next Loon to earn a spot at the 2018 World Cup when the New Zealand national team takes on Peru in the inter-confederation playoff. The home-and-home series begins with the first match on Friday, November 10 and the second on Wednesday, November 15. Aggregate score will be used to determine the winner.
Boxall and his fellow Kiwis have had a busy year building up to this series. After winning the OFC Nations Cup in 2016, they earned the right to play in the 2017 Confederations Cup this summer.
