Scoring only 9 goals with that rate seems bad
post
81 shots and only 23 on target
I'd love to see a map of the shots, I bet a lot of them were outside the box
More wild that every 5-6 touches was a shot? only 500 passes seems low
Will sound weird but N.C set up as well as they could've, really.
6-4-0 stack the box, close off shooting lanes. Goals ended up coming from set pieces.
Keeper did well too, at 15 years of age.
England beat them 10-0 off 41 shots. Poor conversation rate there from Brazil.
conversation rate
This should be age restricted
How did New Caledonia even make it to the World Cup?
2 nations from Oceania quality, so always new zealand and the best island nation.
Is Australia not considered Oceania when it comes to the World Cup?
And it’s important to mention that any good enough player to be called up to the France NT cannot play New Caledonia afterward. While not as bountiful as other French islands like Martinique or Gouadeloupe (Henry, Martial…) they formed some absolute elite player like Karambeu, Kombouare or Zimako. And of course a ton of great rugby players
We've got so many players that we're now sending our regions to play in international competitions. World Cup, Gold Cup, Confederations Cup, Indian Ocean games...
Oceania.
Also last time they qualified they drew against Japan so yeah it’s a bit unexpected too
Is New Caledonia a new country?
Don't know if this is a joke or not, but technically it's not even a country, but a French overseas territory
Real Madrid scouts definitely signing some of them soon 😂
The premier league record for most keeper saves in a match is 14, so despite conceding 9, his performance was heroic
Looks like me when I get clapped in fut champs and go to unleash my wrath against amateur squad battles AI
Portugal did a better conversation rate this year https://imgur.com/gallery/L2pbfHD
Watching the game, New Caledonia almost scored the first goal.

Please tell me this isn't what Brazil flew an injured Gabriel Jesus out for lmao
Remember when Haaland broke into the collective consciousness by scoring 9 in one game at the U-20 wc?
That's a shot every 54 seconds. Were the New Caledonian rushing to kick off every time they conceded?
