New Zealand rallies to defeat Canada at World Cup

Canada opened the scoring in the Pool A match through Mark Pearson's second-minute strike, but Priyesh Bhana equalized for New Zealand in the 11th minute.

Canada went into the interval 2-1 up after Philip Wright's opportunistic shot in the 20th.

New Zealand dominated in midfield in the second session and leveled through a penalty corner conversion by Nick Haig in the 46th.

Archibald put the Kiwis in front three minutes from fulltime with a strike from the top of the striking circle.—AP
