The New Zealand national football team, known as the All Whites, is the representative side for New Zealand in international men's soccer. Based in Auckland and operating under New Zealand Football, the team plays its home matches at various stadiums across the country, including Eden Park and Wellington Regional Stadium. Founded in the early 20th century, the team's iconic nickname derives from their all-white playing kit. Their history is marked by long periods of regional competition in Oceania, with their defining moment arriving in 1982 when they qualified for the FIFA World Cup in Spain. The modern era has been defined by the leadership of players like Chris Wood and Winston Reid, with the team consistently dominating the OFC Nations Cup and securing a historic undefeated campaign at the 2010 FIFA World Cup in South Africa. The team culture is one of resilience and pride, representing a nation where rugby is king but soccer has carved out its own legendary moments. The All Whites remain the standard-bearers for Oceanian football on the global stage.
