Internationals November (World Cup Qualifiers)

[Camara]

Deserved goal by Serbia, after our goal we parked the bus as Santos loves
It's amazing how much we don't play compared with the players we have with his nonsensical tactics and team selections.

 

[Dudu]

What did Portugal need to do? I see Portugal still ahead on GD, but mustn't lose.

Yup! Portugal just need to avoid defeat.

Serbia have been great, probably the better team tbh.

 

[Samid]

I swear Lindelof and Pau Torres are the exact same person

 

[Knux]

Sweden should be 2-0 ahead. Forsberg with 2 great chances.

 

[DomesticTadpole]

Greece ahead if anyone even the slightest bit interested.

 

[Dudu]

Ugh. Jota being rubbish for Portugal yet again.

 

[SirAF]

Ugh. Jota being rubbish for Portugal yet again.

He’s always rubbish. Can’t stand him.

 

[NieThePiet]

how many of the 8 second places are getting a place for the WC?

 

[Gringo]

All Serbia since I started watching

 

[PoTMS]

how many of the 8 second places are getting a place for the WC?

3 from the 10 second placed teams (plus 2 from Nations League).

 

[BorisManUtd]

Good so far, more of the same in 2nd half and we have a chance to win. Nice goal by Tadić.

 

[FCBarcelona]

Sweden should be 2-0 ahead. Forsberg with 2 great chances.

I'm pretty sure xG is far far far away from 0-2.

We really played out of our skins, but we've also played like that against Ireland and conceded to only get a draw in the end.

Serbia threw away the qualification after drawing with an eliminated Ireland at home.

I still think they can qualify through play-offs.
Who are the possible teams they would face there?

 

[Knux]

I'm pretty sure xG is far far far away from 0-2.

Sweden have been the better team here. Just look at the chances. The finishing has been off.

 

[NieThePiet]

3 from the 10 second placed teams (plus 2 from Nations League).

so how does the playoffs work, if only 3 from 10 will go trough?

 

[Samid]

so how does the playoffs work, if only 3 from 10 will go trough?

10 + 2 from NL = 12 teams

12 teams > 6 semi finals > 3 finals > 3 teams qualify

We were better than Ireland and deserved to win, also that same eliminated Ireland almost beat Portugal few days ago. Who on the other hand had their completely legit goal denied back in Belgrade when it was 2:2 against Serbia.

 

[Dudu]

Bruno on!

 

[Camara]

Santos now takes out our best player today (Bernardo) and takes Moutinho out instead of Danilo to put another defensive midfielder

 

[DomesticTadpole]

Duffy gives ROI the lead.

 

[NieThePiet]

10 + 2 from NL = 12 teams

12 teams > 6 semi finals > 3 finals > 3 teams qualify

ah, thought the 2 from NL would be instantly qualified.

so very hard for all teams involved..

 

[DomesticTadpole]

Ogbene gets ROI's second.

 

[PoTMS]

Bruno needs to stop losing the ball so often. He's been guilty of that far too often this season.

Came across this on twitter. Nice save that.

 

[NieThePiet]

Serbia will win this.

 

[Camara]

Ronaldo better manager than Santos, telling the team to go up as sitting back is too dangerous, meanwhile Santos plan is 3 CBs and not letting Cancelo and Mendes (two offensive full backs) attack

 

[Dudu]

Serbia close

Terrible from Portugal. FFS Santos.

 

[Gringo]

I don't know if Serbia are really good or Portugal just bad.

 

[saivet]

Only watched the second half. While Serbia haven't looked that threatening, Portugal have been shite.

 

[DomesticTadpole]

Morata scored for Spain.

 

[DomesticTadpole]

Callum Robinson makes it 0-3 for ROI.

 

[Dudu]

Morata scored for Spain.

Sweden to the playoffs then.

 

[Dudu]

FFS.

Serbia scored

 

[Zoo]

Serbia have done it!

 

[Dudu]

Unbelievable.

 

[DomesticTadpole]

Sweden to the playoffs then.

Yep. They were in the driving seat for a while. It has been downhill since the Greece result.

 

[NieThePiet]

NOOOOO WAY

 

[DomesticTadpole]

Serbia have done it!

Really?

 

[Dudu]

Offside check?

Nope. Goal stands.
