New Zealand are OFC Nations Cup champions. Featuring Quakes rookie defender - third-round draft pick Kip Colvey - the All Whites only conceded one single goal throughout their entire tournament. June 11’s final saw 120 minutes of scoreless but back-and-forth action between the host nation Papua New Guinea & Colvey’s squad, pushing them to a penalty shootout with an anxious PNG audience. New Zealand lifted the trophy in the end, winning 4-2 on penalties & making Colvey’s first senior international tournament a glowing success, as it qualified them for the 2017 Confederations Cup in Russia. We chatted with Kip just after the win to get the full report on his experience.
