Tim Payne se suma a Nueva Zelanda para Haití - Nueva Zelanda

Tim Payne will be part of New Zealand’s squad for haití - nueva zelanda on Tuesday, June 2, 2026, a friendly that gives the All Whites one more match before the World Cup starts. The midfield selection puts one of the squad’s less mediatic pieces into a game that sits inside New Zealand’s final preparation window.

Tim Payne en Nueva Zelanda

Payne, listed as a New Zealand midfielder, is the player highlighted in this squad call. His place in the group is the clearest personnel note attached to the match, because the friendly is being used as a rehearsal rather than a standalone date on the calendar.

New Zealand enters the summer with Group G already mapped out at the 2026 World Cup. The team will debut against Iran on Monday, June 15, then face Egypt on Sunday, June 21, before closing group play against Belgium on Friday, June 26.

Haití y su último examen

Haiti will use the match as its final preparatory test before Group C begins. Its World Cup run opens against Scotland on Saturday, June 13, then brings Brazil six days after that debut, with Morocco waiting on Wednesday, June 24.

That schedule makes the June 2 meeting more than a routine friendly for both sides. New Zealand gets a late look at combinations before Group G begins, while Haiti gets one last competitive check before entering a group that asks for immediate sharpness.

Horario y transmisión en América Latina

The match will kick off at 21:00 in Argentina and Uruguay, 20:00 in Chile, 19:00 in Colombia, Ecuador and Peru, and 18:00 in Mexico. For viewers in Latin America except Brazil, the game will be available on the Disney+ Premium Plan.

For supporters tracking New Zealand’s World Cup build, the useful detail is simple: Payne is in, the friendly is set for Tuesday, June 2, and the squad gets one more live test before the tournament begins. For Haiti, the game is the last dress rehearsal before Scotland arrives on Saturday, June 13.
