    The playoffs with two legs are decided by aggregate: you combine the scores of the two games and the team with the most goals wins. If there is a draw in number of goals scored, the team who scored the most away goals wins. If it is still a draw, I believe they go to extra time and then penalty kicks.

    It'll be an interesting match to watch.

    The goals from both games are added up and the team with the most after both games goes through to the world cup. I'm going to the game in Wellington so I'm hoping for an upset ;)
