The Highlanders' home field, Forsyth Barr stadium, hosted the Fifa U-20 matches between Mexico and Uruguay, and Serbia and Mali.
Rach proud of covergirl
The daughter of former supermodel Rachel Hunter has proven the apple does not fall far from the tree as the 23-year-old plays covergirl on Hello! Fashion Monthly.
Renee Stewart, the daughter of Hunter and British singer Rod Stewart, is a student at the London Contemporary Dance School. This week she appeared in a multi-page shoot for the British magazine, and earned the praise of her famous mum. "Proud of you, love you," Hunter wrote on Instagram, plugging the publication.
Quizzed in the interview on which of her parents she goes to for advice, Renee reveals she turns to mum Rachel. "She's always told me to give your all to something."
