Last gasp goal sees N.Zealand, Slovakia draw 1-1

RUSTENBURG, South Africa (AFP) – An injury-time goal by Winston Reid grabbed New Zealand a 1-1 draw with Slovakia in their World Cup Group F clash here on Tuesday.

A second-half header by Robert Vittek had looked like being enough to see off the Kiwis, who lost all three of their matches on their previous appearance in the 1982 finals, but Reid made them pay.

Group favourites and defending champions Italy drew 1-1 with Paraguay on Monday.
