Final Tournament
The four surviving members (first and second place teams from each group in stage one) of the first stage joined the two seeded teams ( Australia and New Zealand) and took part in a tournament where each team played every other once in a tournament held in Adelaide, Australia.
As this doubled as the 2004 Oceania Nations Cup, the top two teams from the second group stage progressed to a two-legged final to determine the winner of the OFC Nations Cup. These two games on home-and-away basis was separate from World Cup qualifying.
The top two teams from this stage also progressed to the final stage of the 2006 Oceania World Cup qualifying tournament.

Famous quotes containing the word final:
“Sadism and masochism, in Freud’s final formulation, are fusions of Eros and the destructive instincts. Sadism represents a fusion of the erotic instincts and the destructive instincts directed outwards, in which the destructiveness has the character of aggressiveness. Masochism represents the fusion of the erotic instincts and the destructive instincts turned against oneself, the aim of the latter being self-destruction.”
—Patrick Mullahy (b. 1912)
