    History made, now it's time to convert on the football pitch


    The Oly Whites play their first ever quarterfinal at an Olympic Games tonight.

    It will be no easy task to tackle - New Zealand take on host nation Japan, who are three from three so far with a goals difference of plus six.

    Midfielder Gianni Stensness says it's amazing to have made it to the knockout stage.



    Kick-off is at 9pm.
