Fiji Bula Boys Captain Filipe Baravilala believes that anything can happen in terms of football as they prepare to take on the New Zealand Whites in the semi final of the FIFA World Cup 26 Oceania Qualifiers on Friday.

While speaking during a press conference in Wellington, Baravilala says looking at the training and the atmosphere in the camp, the players really believe in each other.

He says they will try and give their best and stick to the game plan.

The captain says their preparation has been going very well as they have had trial matches in Fiji and three in New Zealand.

The Bula Boys take on the All Whites at 6pm this Friday.

Tahiti takes on New Caledonia in the first semi final.

The winner of the final will earn direct qualification for the expanded 48-team FIFA World Cup in North America (Canada, Mexico, and the United States).

The runner-up will advance to the intercontinental playoffs, where they will compete for one of the final spots in the tournament.
