New Zealand held heavily favoured Peru to a scoreless draw on Saturday afternoon in the first leg of an inter-confederation World Cup playoff in Wellington.

Thanks in large part to the play of Stefan Marinovic.

The Vancouver Whitecaps FC goalkeeper turned in a man of the match performance for the Kiwis, making three key saves to keep the clean sheet. Marinovic was front and centre in the seventh minute, swatting the ball off the goalline in highlight-reel fashion.

OMG!

Marinovic swats one off the line in the early going.
