On June 15th at 13:30 at Rustenburg and the Royal Bafokeng Stadium New Zealand faces off against Slovakia. Slovakia is making it’s eighth appearance in the world cup tournament and will challenge New Zealand who is appearing in the tournament only for its second time. Martin Skrtel of Slovakia is a central figure playing for his country. Other players, Marek Hamsik and Stanislav Sestak, though are likely to fall into the background during the tournament. The team lacks big names and star players. The Slovakia’s are coping with a challenging pool, but have so far made progress and are hopeful that they will continue to do so. New Zealand is known for Ryan Nelson, captain and cetre-back. He is a great team leader and works well with team member Shane Smeltz, a key attacker. New Zealand has strong players both on the defense and attack ends. They have a lack of experience in the world cup tournament compared to their opponents, however Slovakia’s experience already this year in he european club may proof useful.
