October 15, 2017

Anthony Hudson spoke to 1NEWS after details for his side's clash with Peru were finalised.

All Whites manager Anthony Hudson says he's "really pleased" with the scheduling of his side's two legged intercontinental play off against Peru confirmed today.

The All Whites will face Peru in the home leg of the qualifying series at Westpac Stadium in Wellington on Saturday, November 11, with kick-off at 4.15pm.

The away leg will be played at the Estadio Nacional de Lima in Peru's capital on Thursday 16 November at 3.15pm NZT.

Speaking this afternoon, Hudson said the timing of the matches in particular were perfect for his side.

"Given the logistics of where our European players are, and when they play on a Saturday and Sunday and us being a day behind, it's so, so important that we play on the Saturday," he said.

"I'm really pleased at the outcome."
