The Legacy
New Zealand reached the 1982 World Cup finals for the first time in their history. John Adshead managed a side that faced Brazil, Scotland, and the Soviet Union in Spain. Steve Sumner captained the team, anchoring a group that included Ricki Herbert in defence, plus Grant Turner and Brian Turner in the midfield. This Adidas away kit reflects the campaign where the All Whites made their inaugural appearance on the global stage. Despite losing all three group matches, the squad gained international experience against high-level opposition before returning home from the tournament.
