KEY POINTS:
A good result for the All Whites in this morning's soccer friendly against Wales in Wrexham.
The match has ended in a two-all draw but Wales has been forced to come from a goal down twice to grab a share of the spoils.
Shane Smeltz put Ricki Herbert's side in front after just two minutes, slamming home a well taken chance, created down the right hand of the field by Duncan Oughton.
Liverpool striker Craig Bellamy then responded for Wales in the 18th minute, but the All Whites were back in front again just six minutes later when Smeltz scored from off a header. However Wales were back level in the 38th minute when Bellamy netted for a second time off a deflection.
The second half did not reach the heights of the first but the All Whites defended well to ensure they left Wrexham happy.
