Norway had one goal incorrectly disallowed - Rumania gets an offside goal.

People might laugh at me here but If I was United, he wouldn't be a top choice but I'd definitely have Shane Duffy on our list of centre-backs to buy. Honestly he heads away everything and is exceptional at getting blocks in and just being in the right place at the right time time and time again.

If he was English, he'd be starting for England right now

He'll be 28 in the middle of next season,that automatically rules him out on here.

That feels nice after Norways late goal against us last time around :). Feels like we should qualify pretty easily now. Although you never know in football.

How much is Matic missed in Serbia? Certainly more than here when he is out.

I am positive for the future but that sucked. At least Ødegaard shined tonight. Great performance and great goal. I would like to see the stats for him tonight. Created shitloads and clearly motm. Should have been 3-2 with the disallowed goal though. We'll get better and maybe next year Haaland will shine in Salzburg and we will have a goalgetter to put all the chances Ødegaard creates.

Some of you Noggies on here wouldn't look out of sorts at RAWK. Next year this, next year that.

ROI not playing Matt Doherty again.:lol:

Amuses me they moan all the time about lack of quality players and just casually leave one of best performing right sided players in premier league on the bench.
We complain about our managers not playing our best players more to be fair.

Piatek saving Poland's skin again.

When was the last time Lewandowski actually had a good run of form for Poland? I know his club form and status makes him undroppable but I dunno it's not like your back up strikers are useless.

He carried them to the World Cup. Hasn't really done much since though.

Bit harsh. He was the top scorer in the last world cup qualifiers.

:lol: I don’t get one right. Yesterday was saying to @Peyroteo we would finish ahead of Ukraine and behind Serbia. 24 Hours later exactly the opposite. Credit to Sheva. Already a bit of tension for that game when we go to Belgrade. Might be good for us.

Looking forward to seeing, what I hope will be, James and Bale on the wings today against Croatia.

Could potentially see the same at Old Trafford next season.

Thomas Delaney on facing Ireland...

Delaney claimed that trying to break down the Irish team was like attempting to "open a can of beans using your hands".

The Borussia Dortmund midfielder has once again emphasised Denmark's frustration when faced with defensive Irish tactics.

"We struggle with their tactics when they defend deeply and then one good cross against us could be all they need," said Delaney.

"When I saw that we got Ireland again, I said 'oh no, not them again'. They're the most annoying opponent."

"We've room for improvement. We don't like playing Ireland. They don't play flowing football but they're skilled at what they do and that makes it a struggle," added Delaney.

"But it's also easy to sit and defend a 0-0. That's just maintaining the status quo so it'll take something different for Ireland to score."
And it came on 87 minutes, you moaning twat.

Croatia-Wales should be a good game today.

Croatia aren't at full strength, Rakitic and Rebic not available but would still expect them to win on home turf.

Giggs gone defensive, dropped David Brooks and has Harry Wilson just off Bale today.
