Auckland City FC duo Clayton Lewis and Te Atawhai Hudson-Wihongi have been named in Anthony Hudson's All Whites squad for impending FIFA World Cup qualifiers with New Caledonia.

Lewis and Hudson-Wihongi have been regular features in the All Whites since the FIFA U-20 World Cup was held in New Zealand last year.

New Zealand face New Caledonia at QBE Stadium on November 12 before playing them again on November 15.

Lewis, 19, has won five international caps while Te Atawhai Hudson-Wihongi, 21, has been a model of consistency for Auckland City FC leading to three appearances for the All Whites.

Hudson-Wihongi has faced New Caledonia once previously when the All Whites downed Les Cagous 1-0 in the semi-finals of the OFC Nations Cup in Port Moresby back in June.

The former Real Salt Lake midfielder replaced veteran Rory Fallon as a late substitute after a 49th minute goal by Chris Wood saw the All Whites home.

Lewis, who played in both matches for the All Whites during the recent friendly internationals with USA and Mexico, missed the OFC Nations Cup due to a temporary suspension.
