Boxall Leads NZ to World Cup
Description
Veteran MLS defender Michael Boxall, at 37, is heading to the 2026 World Cup with New Zealand — one of only two MLS players on the squad. A Minnesota United captain with record-setting stats and an MLS All-Star nod in 2025, Boxall’s international resume includes 62 caps, a World Cup qualifying winner’s goal, two Olympic appearances, and every minute in the 2017 Confederations Cup. New Zealand, in Group G with Belgium, Egypt, and Iran, aim to break their 2010 group-stage draw streak — and Boxall’s crucial goal in their 3-0 OFC qualifier sets the tone for a historic run in the expanded 48-team tournament.
