    I'd say it's far more likely to be Samoa, the team they beat 31-0.

    Doubt it, it says a crucial match, that was a friendly (plus it doesn't fit! You can't just leave letters out to make it fit.)

    yes but:
    On June 30, 2002, the day of the final match of the 2002 World Cup, Bhutan, then the second-lowest ranked team in the world, won their first game ever. They played against the worst team, Montserrat, in a friendly match known jokingly as the 'Other' World Cup Final, winning 4-0.

    I've tried looking for other matches, including cricket and rugby...:o
    top 2013 wins: iPad, £50 dental care, £50 sportswear, £50 Nectar GC, £300 B&Q GC; jewellery, Bumbo, 12xPringles, 2xDiesel EDT, £25 Morrisons, £50 Loch Fyne

    would like to win a holiday, please!!

    I've found a few instances where Montserrat has been spelled without the "t" i.e. Monserrat........could they have spelled it incorrectly in the answer box???

    Bhutan and Montserrat - They have changed the question to 6,3,10 so it now fits!

    Note that Rene Higuita (not Huguita) is the correct spelling. Australia beat AMERICAN SAMOA 31-0 (the other Samoa is Western Samoa) so I am not sure that Samoa is the right answer.
