...fine goal by Tom Lawrence for Wales, looks a good player.

 

[Azza]

Once again Williams playing decent for Wales.

What needs to happen for Ireland to qualify?

Ireland 2-0 up
Darryl Murphy with both
Randolph just pulled off a stunning save

What needs to happen for Ireland to qualify?

A miracle
More than likely Ireland need to win tonight and beat Wales on Monday to get the runners up spot.
If Ireland win tonight and Wales lose or draw a draw will do for Ireland on Monday

Wales has already won; so Ireland has to win in Wales. Assuming nobody ends up worst second etc.

How is that a miracle? Or am I missing something

So one team that finishes second (worst) won't qualify?

Yep 9 groups; only 8 of the seconds play play-offs. The worst one doesn't.

How likely is it Ireland will be if they beat Wales.

...fine goal by Tom Lawrence for Wales, looks a good player.

He was outstanding on loan at Ipswich last season. Literally their only good player.

 

[Brisan123]

How likely is it Ireland will be if they beat Wales.

Very unlikely
I think that Scotland winning was a good result for Ireland in that regard.
If and it’s a big if Ireland beat Wales then they will more than likely go to the play offs

..just looks a very straightforward and good footballer. Pacey and a fine first touch.

How likely is it Ireland will be if they beat Wales.

19 points if they beat Wales.

Sweden will have 19 if they beat Luxemburg tomorrow (with one match in hand and +11 already) - so group A probably won't be worst.

Second in group B already has 21 (+24); so probably won't be them.

Second in group C already 19 (+14) with one match in hand - proabably won't be them

Second in group E already 19 (+11) with one match in hand - probably won't be them

Second in group F; is Scotland they have 17 points atm. Their last game is against Slovenia; should easily win that. So they'll have 20 points then.

Second in group G; Italy already 19 (+12); one match in hand.

Second in group H is Bosnia; 14 points atm. They have to play Belgium tomorrow, so if we win against them quite they'll quite likely end up with 17 points. The third Greece still has two easy games; so they'll probably also end up with 19 points (very easy matches ahead so can easily enhance their + goals).

Won't be group I; since both already have 19 points; (if I watch the results tonight + good goals scored ratio's).

So in conclusion; probably Ireland or the second out of the Belgian group will probably be the worst depending on the goal saldo. Ireland has +5 atm I think; Bosnia +11, Greece (+6).


Ps: I am quite tired so sorry if there are some errors there.

That Morgan looked good on the left for Scotland u21's. Thought our boys did very well, Kenny as usual looked the business
