World Cup 2018 Qualifiers Discussion

Mitrovic equalises for Serbia.

Cue trademark crazy celebration.

Ffs Mitrovic scored. 1-1

Wales nearly went 2-0 just moments before that

THIS SERBIAN GK LMFAOOOOOOOOOOOO

Ran 60 yards just to join in with the scrap

FT 1-1

Joe Ledley was immense. Thought Wales missed his intensity when he was subbed.

Bale really should have made it 2-0

Amazing game by Spain. Particularly Silva who was everywhere. Lopetegui should always start this defence, between them they make alot less mistakes than the starters

Scrub.

What did he do?
Nastasic is actually a really good player

Nearly broke Ramsey's ankle iirc

Yeah. I've given up hope in the NT. Without any sort of defense besides Ghoulam, we're destined to leak goals no matter what

This is just unbelievable

Sublime football for Belgiums 4th, Perfect example of how to evade high pressing in the most efficient way.

You do realize they were playing Macedonia, right?

nice goal from Belotti

https://my.mixtape.moe/ymjfli.mp4

2 goals and an assist. Makes it his 3 goals in 2 starts for the NT, and 11 goals in 15 in all comps this season.

Italy vs Germany happening tonight, both teams changing players and/or systems.

Expected, and likely wrong, lineup from Italy


Chiellini and Barzagli are injured. Marchisio is out since he just came back from the torn ACL. De Rossi, Zappacosta and Candeva are rotated from the qualifier. Rugani and Romagnoli get their first start together. Bernardeschi and Belotti are the only certainties in attack. Immobile might be rested for Eder or Insigne.

So Lopetegui thinks it's a good idea to play injury prone Carvajal in a meaningless friendly knowing our injury list

China 1-0 S.Korea
Syria 1-0 Uzbekistan

a win for Iran in Doha tonight, and we are almost there

Syria ffs, can't play on home turf, don't have a league, I don't even know how they train, yet they've beaten China and Uzbekistan and drew Iran and Korea, Keeping FOUR cleansheets

Where do they (Syria) play their home matches? Where does the team even live?

Europe.

They play home matches in Malaysia. They could have played in any of other Arab countries, but picked Malaysia instead. Working very well so far for them !

I assume in Damescus. I saw photos and videos of some football match in Aleppo in January, first time in over 4 years. Damescus is pretty under control and I suspect they have some sort of an unprofessional league still going there.

We did it Sepi ffs

4 pts clear and 3 of 4 remaining games are at home

hold that L qatar

Paulinho scoring a hattrick Them feels when Tite wins the World Cup with 22 Corinthians players and Neymar.

Refgentina winning after a BS pen

I only caught the last 25 minutes of the Argentina game. Did they play that badly all game or was it just at the end? Was it a legit penalty?

Paulinho's hat trick What a time to be alive.

I wouldn't know, I contracted eye cancer while watching the Arg match and am now blind

The pk wasn't that BS.

Dat midfield of Mascherano-Biglia.

Tite is just demolishing the qualifiers, will be a sure favorite for the world cup barring big injuries.

Venezuela went 2-0 up and eneded up drawing 2-2 and of course *bleep* Guerrero scored.
