The Detail · The Fallon verdict on the Football World Cup so far · 16 Jul 2026 podcast

Now, every four years, the world stops to watch the FIFA Football World Cup. voice-verified

Hi, I'm Amanda Gillies and today on The Detail, the beautiful game. voice-verified

Ahead of the FIFA Football World Cup final on Monday morning, Spain versus Argentina, we catch up with one of New Zealand's finest football players, Rory Fallon, for his verdict on the competition. voice-verified

It was, of course, his goal that got the All Whites to the World Cup back in 2010. voice-verified

And it was Rory's father, Kevin Fallon, who helped coach the All Whites to their first ever World Cup back in 1982. voice-verified

It's fair to say Rory is part of footballing royalty in New Zealand. voice-verified

He's played professionally in the UK and now coaches Auckland FC Reserves. voice-verified

He knows his stuff. voice-verified

And I started our no-holds-barred chat by asking for his overall assessment of this year's World Cup tournament. voice-verified

In what way? voice-verified

Talk me through that. voice-verified

And is that part of because it's just so hot there at the moment that they need these drinks? voice-verified

It's about making a bit of moolah. voice-verified

Have you noticed a game where you've seen a team on fire and then after that drinks break they've lost their way a bit or that hasn't continued? voice-verified

One thing that I've noticed in this game, and I know it's happened always in football, but it's the Hollywoods, the diving and all that kind of stuff. voice-verified

Have you noticed an increase in that? voice-verified

And what does that do for the game? voice-verified

What about the video assistant referee, the VAR, I think they call it? voice-verified

And just play the game. voice-verified

Yeah. voice-verified
