New Zealand big winner from FFA A-League investment
New Zealand's qualification for the 2010 World Cup is the direct result of 2 actions by the
FFA.
1. The move of the Socceroos from Oceania to Asia, thereby giving New Zealand its 5th spot. Also
the '5th spot' moving from South America to Asia.
2. The A-League lifting the performance of players who otherwise would only have achieved local
experience on the small NZ scene.
