Peak Moyes mid-2000's substitution from Southgate there, bringing Livermore on for 8 seconds.

Not a very convincing performance yet again.

Love to see someone snap Horrendous.

What about Northern Ireland, 5 wins on the trot, five clean sheets on the trot. We are definitely going to win the World Cup.

At this rate you could end up playing one of Wales/Scotland/Eire in a play off mate

Will be fun for the neutral that one!

I'd honestly rather play Germany or Spain in a playoff than them; what O'Neill has done with that side is nothing short of outstanding and no-one would be confident of beating them over two legs. Lets face it that is, Evans aside, a bottom half Championship team and he has them with 19 points with two games to play in what was meant to be a difficult group.

As for a home nations tie - they'd certainly beat the Republic and Scotland, us Welsh were lucky to beat them at the Euros (and this is a less confident Welsh side than that one was), and I doubt anyone would be surprised if they turned England over.

I love Michael O Neill. That is all.

Would prefer not to play the Republic of Ireland until the final. But on a serious note, for a country of 1.6 million people Northern Ireland are going well.

69 mins in and Australia (Vs Thailand) score after having a 'Poland' game 25 shots, hit the post or bar 3 times.
tbf, Thailand are 2 banks of 5 and a keeper.
I think it is still out of their hand up to a point and may be all down to GD...or the lack of.
Just had a 3rd one cleared off the line

I'd feel bad for the Aussie's if they don't make it

Just shows that Asia is an always improving confederation I guess

 

[royalblue66]

Just seen the Wales match advertised S4C, for anyone that don't use Sky.

Thailand make it 1-1 England Vs Poland deja vu

Good night Vienna here for the Aussies

In the traditional way of writing these things the Home team is ALWAYS normally first.

From my welsh perspective I would be happy taking on Northern Ireland over a two-legged play off. You know what you are going to get, hardly any travel, they have done remarkably well but if we can put out a full strength side I think we will go through.

(Really though would just be happy making it to the play offs!!)
