4-0 Cancelo with a fluke assist by Fernandes.
Internationals October (Euro Qualifiers)
- Thread starter Samid
- Start date
Might have already been discussed but I've just seen an article saying it's in the best interests of Rep. Ireland if they lose to Netherlands because of the way the Nations League rankings work and that being the deciding factor for the playoffs.
San Marino works harder than this
We were always a joke when it comes to profesionalism.San Marino works harder than this
Bosnia's defense... oof...
Bosnia used to give us trouble tbf. You guys must really be at the lowest point
I didn't realise Onana was Bosnian.
Their cbs doing a good Maguire and Lindelof impression too
Yeah, last two months are literally lowest point in last 12-15 years for our national team, which says a lot considering our last two-three years have been really shite. Even the fans aren't going to stadium anymore, but everyone wanted to see Ronaldo so it's a full house.
Cheers, didn't even know that
Almost embarrassingly 2-1 at HT. Liechtenstein got a freak handball penalty. GK saves, they take the rebound but it's called off and taken again because of encroachment (rare). 2nd pen is wide off the target so two misses in a row from the same penalty taker.
Fecking borefest. Greece are abysmal, but we're not much better. And please for the love of feck, stop calling up Wout Weghorst. PULEASE.
The play-off cutoff for League B will be at either Ukraine, Iceland or Norway. Too many of the nations ahead of Ireland in the Nations League standings flopped in these regular qualifiers.
2-0, of mikill bjór?
Funny hearing the commentator talking about Bosnia fans "showing some support" when they start chanting when in reality they're telling the FA to feck off
Spyr þig það sama. Lestu aftur. Næstum 2-1...2-0, of mikill bjór?
Belgium-Sweden has been stopped. Shooting in Brussels where a couple of Swedish fans were killed.
Was the shooting football related? I mean, ultras or something?
The early to mid 2010's we were quite good. This current team is atrocious both quality wise but also mainly it's the environment/atmosphere.
Dedic is good and young. Same with Ahmedhodzic, though he doesn't want to play. The rest are garbage.
Told my dad yesterday we'd do well to not get a 9-0 like you did vs Luxembourg
No, killer pledged allegiance to Isis in a video. But the attack was clearly aimed at Swedish fans.
The shooting happened before the match started though?
No, seems to be IS related stuff, but somehow targeting Swedish fans. Bizarre stuff. Not sure what happens now.
From what's being said at the moment it appears to be an islamic fundamentalist, ISIS claimed I think. Targeted attack.
Gylfi scores his 2nd to make it 3-0, thus going ahead of Guðjohnsen and Sigþórsson to become Iceland's all-time top scorer with 29 goals.

Don’t know how to embed. Not sure how true it is.
Yes, that's right. Swedish players were briefed at halftime and decided to not continue the match.
Possibly related to this stuff?
Sweden has been on pretty high alert for terrorist attacks lately because of it.
Belgian and Swedish ultras? I'd be surprised. Never heard of problems between those set of fans.
Edit: Already read the other comments. A tragedy. May they RIP.
Yes, but the Swedish players decided not to play the second half.
I find it amazing that you guys don't give that position to anyone else, even some young striker who is struggling at some european club is surely better than fecking Wout. He must have some strong ties at the top, there is no other explanation why he saw so much of professional football in his life.
Never seen this before. Liechtenstein made a double sub. Realized after the subs was made that they took off nr 7 instead of 17. Nr 7 went on the pitch again and they were 12 men before the 4th assistant yelled at nr 7 to come back off.
Meanwhile nr 17 limps towards the halfway line holding his groin confused why he couldn't go off. They then make a sub minute later to take him off.

I can't see Hollywood lining up to dramatise this one mate
just saw this tweet on my timeline and start laughing at how hard it hits home:

What is this check for in Netherlands game for?
Feck all. Or to delay Virgil's miss.
Get in Van Dyke
No idea what the VAR check was about
Looked like there was another shout for a penalty but what difference did it make? So dumb.
How is that not a pen?
