KEY POINTS:
The long-awaited second stage of the soccer World Cup qualifier between New Zealand and Fiji will now be held in Fiji on November 19.
The match was initially scheduled to take place in Auckland on October 13 last year but was postponed when Fijian goalkeeper Simione Tasmanisau was denied an entry visa into New Zealand.
New Zealand Football and Fiji Football Association requested the match be rescheduled to Samoa on June 23rd, but financial difficulties at the Samoa Football Soccer Federation meant the country was unable to host the match.
The Oceania Football Confederation said the decision to relocate the November game to Fiji had been at the request of all participants. New Zealand won the first leg 2-0 in Lautoka.
