At least they are giving Scotland a lesson on how to leave Europe here.
Internationals March (Euro Qualifiers + Friendlies)
- Thread starter Samid
- Start date
Scotland getting outplayed all over the pitch. This will be right up there on our worst results ever, along with away at Israel recently too. Big Eck manager in both, he should go.
Do you stream games? It's not worth paying £40 a month that's for sure. The product was much better a few years back.
I think he'll start in that case, with Mertens as central striker and his brother from the left. Small ball ftw.
Kazakhstan are pretty good, not exactly a shock that they're winning this.
Can see them scoring 1 or 2 more.

What?!
Kazakhstan are woeful. They won one game in 6 against Georgia, Andorra and Latvia in the nations league.
Horrendous result that should see McLeish sacked.
State of Scotland.
Kazhakstan are dreadful and are about 70 places below Scotland in the rankings, it should be a shock they're winning this.
You must have them confused with Ukraine or something.They are far from woeful, this back 5 system looks great and they're clearly showing they have quality. New manager has made a difference.
They were much better than Andorra and Latvia in the Nations League, the results were deceiving.
McTominay on for 20 mins. His local fan club must be thrilled:
Just 5 wins in their last 50 qualification games....against 2xAndorra, Latvia, Faroe Islands and Azerbaijan.
Not even Scotland should lose 3-0 there.
Scotland are a joke and had it coming for
not starting their best player, what a mug McLeish is.

I just got a tooth out, but this is more painful. Can't believe it's been 21 years since we were good enough to at least not make out of the group stages of major tournaments. If I'd know France 98 would be the last time I would see us in a world Cup/euros I would have savoured it more.
They're not the same team they were 50 qualification games ago, the improvement is clear. They're going to do well throughout this qualification, just watch.
Scotland have players missing so I don't see this as a big surprise.
Jesus, has it really been that long?
Having your captain pull out for a minor mouth operation must've hurt, but hey, better now than during his time with whatever club he's at
Especially since whoever this guy is that's playing left back for Scotland has been atrocious.Jesus, has it really been that long?

Improvement is clear
Was only November last year they we struggling to a 1-1 draw at home to Latvia.
They will lose every game bar this and they might sneak something against Cyprus. San Marino don't count.

Like said the team without Robertson, Tierney and Fraser is a awful team + McLeish is awful too but i thought they could get at least a draw.
So you think Kazakhstan have a good chance to get the 2nd place in the group ahead of Russia?
Obviously missing Tierney.
I watched it, should have won that by 3 or 4 easily... but alright.Improvement is clear

They won't be far off qualifying. You'll see.
Right, it's been 20 years. Times flies.... Wish you good luck - looks like you might have a decent shot with the NL?
Difficult to say. As it stand we will have a home game against Serbia with the winner facing Scotland/Finland in the playoff final. Hoping Serbia can qualify directly so we don't have to face them. If that happens I certainly fancy us to qualify over Scotland/Finland.
Cyprus v. San Marino. Not sure if I can stand all this excitement.
Any decent games tonight?
I've been sitting through an intense lecture today (abuse of power and bullying at the workplace) with who I'm pretty sure is Ed Woodwards Norwegian twin. The similarity was uncanny.

How much fecking football do you watch to have insights into the changing form of Kazakhstan?!
I have a mixture of respect and concern for your wellbeing.
Christ Scotland!? WTF!? They weren't that bad in the Nations League and now they lose 3-0 to Kazakhstan
What did you do?
Only watch them for betting purposes. Need to keep the international break as entertaining as possibleHow much fecking football do you watch to have insights into the changing form of Kazakhstan?!

That was a shocking performance by Scotland.
Kazakhs will be fired up for the games vs Russia though, it's like a cup final for the ex-soviet states and they've often been successful in grinding out grim bunkering home draws that complicate qualification or in the case of the 2006 world cup making a big contribution to Russia not qualifying.

I’ve been pretty lucky that most of the games I’ve been free to watch have been aired on Sport1 - streams I’ve pretty much given up
Cyprus already 3-0 up on San Marino.
Now 4-0.
Now 4-0.

What's going on with Scotland?
I think the only way they can qualify for a major tournament is by putting them in a group with San Marino, isle of Man and that island Tom Hanks got stranded on with Wilson the ball.

Me and 70 others. It was about trying to avoid these situations, and how we go about things.
Don't hire Mourinho?
He would have been suspended whilst investigated thorougly. Perhaps relocated if lucky.
McTominay came on as sub in 70th min, is he carrying a knock or something that he can't make the Scotland team
Belgium starting XI against Russia:
Courtois
Alderweireld Boyata Vertonghen
Castagne Tielemans Dendoncker T.Hazard
Mertens Batshuayi E.Hazard(C)
Alderweireld Boyata Vertonghen
Castagne Tielemans Dendoncker T.Hazard

Belgium-Russia and Austria-Poland the ones that stand out.
If a player pulls out injured from a competitive international game, they should not be eligible for the next club game.
Need a rest? Refuse the call up.
