Ngata scored New Zealand's goal in his full All Whites debut, a 1–3 loss against Saudi Arabia on 28 April 1993. He was included in the New Zealand side for the 1999 Confederations Cup finals tournament[5] and he ended his international playing career with 28 A-international caps and 3 goals to his credit, his final cap a substitute appearance in a 7–0 win over Vanuatu on 13 June 2001.[6] [7]
