The Road to World Cup 2026 and UEFA Nations League

[Jinky]

Sweden, with Elanga & Gyokeres up top, have lost 2-0 to Kosovo (who also had a player sent off right at the end).

Grim result for ROI in Armenia

 

[jd1981]

England deservedly ahead, someone might want to tell Serbia that a draw suits us better not them

 

[Templeton Peck]

That goal was beautiful

 

[White Wolf]

Actually pretty good, the long balls strategy has worked. I don't think it would against a better side as Serbia look pretty bad when dealing with it but the tactics in this match are good for once. If the set piece delivery improves we could hurt them a lot. Madueke isn't the best player but does have a habit now of playing better for England than his club.

Grim result for ROI in Armenia

Genuinely shocking. I know we are bad at the moment but I thought we could beat 105th placed Armenia, given how well we played in the 2nd half on Sat.
The performance was worse than the result - we should have lost by 4 or 5.
Kelleher the only one to come out with any credit. Just when I thought Irish football couldn't sink lower.

 

[jd1981]

England doing what they often do well and disposing of mid tier European sides to qualify comfortably

 

[Stan Hullis]

Pretty harsh assessment of what has been a good performance tonight in what is our toughest group game.

Extremely disappointing considering they had a really positive comeback v Hungary on Saturday

It’s a compliment we make very light work of these games in qualifying bar the very rare aberration.

 

[Stan Hullis]

Fair enough, maybe I read it the wrong way.

 

[jd1981]

That’s as well as England have played in a while, Morgan Rogers was extremely impressive and I thought Rice dictated the pace of the game.

 

[Sniffer]

I thought Rice dictated the pace of the game.

…..but missed several chances.
They all played well to be honest.

Around 1:25 on here for some stunning work from Everton "hotshot" Beto

 

[White Wolf]

Nice Wolves connection for the Portugal goal, Trincao cross and Neves scores in 90+1.

Delighted for Ruben.

Ronaldo playing every minute of every game so he can get his precious 1,000 goals is obscene. He is 40 years old and bloody awful now.

 

[Lupo]

Missed a penalty too. Poor old Ramos gets his token few minutes towards the end.

Italy beat Estonia 3-1. The Estonia goal was a mistake by Donnarumma who appeared to catch the ball but then spilt it.

3 wins from 3 for Rino Gattuso. At home to Israel on Tuesday night, win that and 2nd spot is secured

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

England through with a win on Tuesday as Serbia lost

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Also if Croatia win their group then Germany probably won't be seeded at the World Cup

Sweden, with Elanga & Gyokeres up top, have lost 2-0 to Kosovo (who also had a player sent off right at the end).

Almost certainly not qualifying now
