Both the Ireland’s are absolutely horrendous to watch. Might watch a bit of Luxembourg v Hungary friendly for a more entertaining fixture.

Zakaria looks a level above almost everybody on the pitch and he's only 20. Not surprising though, he looked brilliant against Keita and Leipzig a couple of months back. Had 8 interceptions against Hoffenheim a fortnight ago too.

Scotland 0-1 Netherlands (Depay)

Come on NI, keep 0-0 at HT and i think they will get a gol to win 1-0

Good half anyway despite what some wanker says. Playing against a superior side and rarely threatened. Still an opportunity to get the win and take it to the second leg.

Switzerland should be 8 or 9 up already.

Well that's a bit fucking silly...oh it's you. Not unexpected then.

Yeah, do. Spare us your usual shit.

Hope NI manage this over the two legs, it was always going to be a challenge, but they've won some impressive victories overall so I think they still have every chance.

Go watch England for some proper entertainment. Oh, but I suppose you aren't English are you? Nationless. Rhymes well with clueless, your other attribute.

Gerry Attrick · « **Reply #50 on:** November 9, 2017, 08:40:58 pm »

Not a bad scoreline for NI so far, but they'll need to be more adventurous in the second half. I don't think a 0-0 is any good, as I posted the other day Switzerland are insanely good at home.

I got a warning for calling him a troll. Despite him obviously being a troll. Just a heads up.

Only just started watching the NornIron game, but if that Ref has been the same as he was first half, then it's another France-Ireland game, the bigwigs at UEFA want Switzerland there.

Bent as fuck.

4-1 Croatia. Kramaric. Greeks bearing gifts today.

Gerry Attrick · « **Reply #54 on:** November 9, 2017, 08:55:48 pm »

Croatia can start preparing for Russia next summer.

Glad Greece is losing by big margin, they play Mourinho type of football.

pyroparty · « **Reply #56 on:** November 9, 2017, 08:56:59 pm »

Another sitter missed by the Swiss. Ireland might fancy a 1-0 at this rate

Gerry Attrick · « **Reply #57 on:** November 9, 2017, 08:58:27 pm »

Pen to Switzerland. Rodriguez scores.

Yeah. Nothing against Greece, they're pretty dull to watch and usually pretty decent defensively and 2004 was pretty special (and funny) but this current Croatia side won't be around much longer so I'm glad we'll get to watch this Croatia side, especially Modric - would have loved us to have signed him instead of Tottenham - at a major tournament.

elsewhere · « **Reply #61 on:** November 9, 2017, 08:59:45 pm »

that's it i suppose, they won't score a goal in 2 matches now

Woeful decision to give the pen

Statto Red · « **Reply #63 on:** November 9, 2017, 09:00:05 pm »

Disgraceful decision on that penalty never a penalty

Disgraceful penalty decision that

dudleyred · « **Reply #65 on:** November 9, 2017, 09:00:28 pm »

That’s never a penalty - ropey refereeing to decide a match of this importance

Agree, Croatia have plenty of players that I enjoy watching.

That's a bad decision, hit his back

That ref needs sacking.. no way was that a pen.

Disgraceful decision.

Every decision going to the Swiss.

KissThisGuy · « **Reply #72 on:** November 9, 2017, 09:04:52 pm »

How the fuck do you give a penalty there? Disgraceful decision. Feel sorry for Michael O'Neil, he seems a decent bloke.

redprodigal · « **Reply #73 on:** November 9, 2017, 09:05:17 pm »

Fucking disgrace that. Unbelivable incompetence from the referee.

smicer07 · « **Reply #74 on:** November 9, 2017, 09:05:20 pm »

The only thing worse than the ref's decision is the fucking Northern Irish co-commentator. Biased and bitter.

It’s unbearable. It’s not commentary it’s just listening to an irate fan.
