Hey atleast you've seen your team in an international tourney in your lifetime. I'll consider myself lucky if my country does that in my lifetime.

Sheva needs to bring himself on. So far this has epitomised Ukraine since he retired.
Wow, someone actually scored!
International football is shite.
International football is shite.
Yesh plish
Chance for someone to pull a Denmark 92
Macedonia? That doesn't count.
Wouldn't be surprised to see Georgia score.
His username pointing towards him being from Iceland perhaps
. I was wondering if they could qualify tonight..(I don't pay much attention to national teams)GYLFI!!!! 1-0 Iceland
My gf is in Belgrade for work and decided to go to the game. She has frontrow tickets by the looks of her snapchats, so she should join a pitch invasion after the match if they win.
We are awful. Defending. Waiting for goal. Scared.
Btw - i am so glad that we didn't buy perisic. Last couple of matches for croatia he is awful. Play for your NT , you prick. Him and rakitic are disgraceful
Nigeria seem to be consistently good qualifiers .
No one else on the African continent seems to be that consistent. Makes the whole thing exciting though.
They did the same thing with McCarthy in 99 before that horrorshow in Skopje. I have no idea why they consistently leave it to the last game when issues still need to be settled.
1-0 Iceland.
Cheating bastards injuring Joe Allen.
Because they are idiots run by one of the most corrupt men in Europe who just happens to be the biggest fecking idiot of them all.
A newly formed Catalan team.Chance for someone to pull a Denmark 92
There must be an entire library of occasions when they made baffling decisions which defy belief.
Why would mick be sacked in 99?
Pedro misses a 1v1 with the keeper.
What exactly is Perisic good at, except crossing(not great either, but better than your average winger's crossing)?
Lumping the ball at that wales defence might be a good tactic tonight as they seem to have no idea how to deal with it, generally kicking it straight up in the air with no distance on it
Is a draw good enough for Croatia?
International football is dogshite.
Well that deteriorated as the half went on.
That first half between Wales and Ireland was painful to watch.
Arghhh. Not surprising tbh. They all play like world class players for their teams, and for NT they play worst than me. Bastards. Part of me wants us not to go to Russia, something might change. Right...
Well sacking him wouldn't have been inevitable but they could've waited until the end of the campaign to assess his future, particularly as we had thrown away a favourable position against a team that even then we should have seen off.
Ireland are so bad. They don't deserve to be at the World Cup (sorry Irish lads, I want you to be there instead of Wales - but it's like watching an international version of a Tony Pulis side)
True
I thought you meant they should have sacked him...but of course they were correct to keep him on. 2002 campaign was amazing
Anyway, back to the football tonight. It is encouraging that the early pressure we faced died off towards the end and are still in it. At the same time though, it's been very scrappy and not troubling. We may be all square but we need a win here so lumping the ball in and hoping it's going to fall for us isn't going to work.
Indeed. Still 0-0
My god! We are truly terrible. Our best player (Insigne) is totally useless down the left, but Ventura doesn't understand it.
We are basically a slightly worse England.
Blame MON for that. Obviously we are far from a great side (4.8m people and football isn't even our most played sport) but we should be able to play better than this at least.
