New Zealand fans embarrassingly over-confident ahead of World Cup quarter final
Enough to make you wince, isn’t it? New Zealand fans think they can just walk over this Ireland team and it’s going to be embarrassingly funny if they cough it up here.
1 News interviewed New Zealand fans today ahead of Ireland’s World Cup quarter-final with New Zealand which will be played on Saturday 19th October.
The reporter asked random New Zealand fans if they were worried about Ireland in the final 8 knockout match, and the answers were all the same.
Fans have all been very excited about the big clash on Saturday.
Anyone else pumped for tomorrow?? I can’t wait! #ThinkWeCanDoIt #IrevNZ

All this optimism about our chances agains NZ is misplaced. @lstwrd unless we are very lucky we are going to get beaten by 20+ points #IREvNZL

Just take a look at these kiwi fans being interviewed.
Pure arrogance.
Watch the kiwi fans in this interview. Embarrassingly confident.
Look at the arrogance.
Surely New Zealand fans learnt their lesson from 2007 to not be so arrogant when it comes to big games?
