Match Info

The Costa Rica men's national team qualified for the 2022 FIFA World Cup with a narrow 1-0 victory over New Zealand in their inter-confederation play-off match on June 15, 2022. This single-goal affair at the Ahmad bin Ali Stadium in Qatar was decided by an early strike, sending Los Ticos to their third World Cup in the last four editions. Costa Rica scored the game's only goal in the first few minutes, likely through a set-piece or a defensive error, and then managed the game expertly to protect their lead. The match process saw New Zealand dominate possession and create several chances but fail to find a way past Keylor Navas in the Costa Rican goal. The standout performance was from goalkeeper and captain Navas, whose crucial saves preserved the clean sheet and the victory. The result placed Costa Rica into Group E at the World Cup alongside Spain, Germany, and Japan. Costa Rica's manager Luis Fernando Suárez celebrated a tactical triumph, while New Zealand's Danny Hay was left to rue missed opportunities.
