International Matches | 24th - 31st March 2022

Great to see Canada qualify. Always like seeing other countries than the usual lot compete.

 

[Cellarite]

Well why don't England, as they have much less of a chance of doing anything than Wales have.

How do you work that out when Wales haven't seen a World Cup since 1958?

USA tempting fate with Costa Rica ready to push them into the Oceania play-off.

 

[LangleyBlue1970]

Well done agent Stones. Played the international break like a harp.

 

[Barcon]

USA tempting fate with Costa Rica ready to push them into the Oceania play-off.

Wouldn't they have to beat them 11 - 0?

 

[MCFC1993]

6-0.

5-0 would put them level (USA drop 5 GD to +8, CR gain 5 GD to +8).

Still very unlikely but they're not through.

There could be a 3 way split if Mexico get beat too.

Right, not sure what I was thinking.
It's probably more likely that Mexico would be the ones to suffer though.
Anyhoo.... Canada eh?

Whilst I get the sentiment, poor choice of words from the preening pony, calling their play off a matter of life and death, given the state of things in Ukraine currently. Funnily enough no journalist seems to have taken him to task on it.

I'm sure the NM players will take deep joy taking turms in kicking him until he cries off.

 

[Alan Harper's Tash]

Watched the first half of Andorra vs Grenada last night to get me in the right frame of mind for England’s game tonight.

 

[Gray]

So excited about this that i'm actually going to watch Married at first sight instead,

I am watching Portugal v N. Macedonia.

I am watching Portugal v N. Macedonia.

Is that on TV anywhere?

Sky Sports action I think?

 

[MCFC1993]

Great scenes seeing Eriksen score in the stadium where he collapsed last year.

 

[MCFC1993]

I see Senegal-Egypt is going to extra time.

Another 30mins for Mane and Salah, oh what a shame...

 

[Barcon]

Nice bit of work by Cancelo, only for Bucky Beaver to make a balls of it.

 

[FogBlueInSanFran]

That was literally the header of a 7 year-old.

I see Lukas Nmecha is on the bench for Germany…

 

[mat]

Alti fan given the Portugal match.

 

[MCFC1993]

I see Lukas Nmecha is on the bench for Germany…

Came on in their last game and won a penalty too.

Looks like he's moving in the right direction.
