Vanuatu, who went down 1-0 to the Solomon Islands in their opening match, will face New Zealand to open Tuesday’s action at Port Moresby’s Sir John Guise Stadium.
Vanutau coach Moise Poida couldn’t hide his disappointment following his side’s defeat to their Melanesian rivals.
His players looked comfortable on the ball and created a number of promising opportunities but they lacked cutting edge in the final third.
Poida knows that it will not get any easier against the All Whites, but he believes his side is more than capable of causing an upset.
