Herbert hails draw in Kiwis finest hour

NEW Zealand manager Ricki Herbert has hailed his team’s 1-1 World Cup draw with Slovakia yesterday as the best result in the nation’s football history.

And he immediately began dreaming of producing something similar against Italy.

Herbert saw full-back Winston Reid score his side’s equaliser with a bullet header three minutes into injury-time after Robert Vittek had put Slovakia ahead five minutes after half-time.
