World Cup 2014 Qualifiers

Colin Hendry being Scottish might be the reason why. I don't watch Soccer AM, but everything I've seen/heard today from various pundits and people discussing the game have talked about how great Bale's comeback to win it for Wales was. No mention of him fouling himself.

Croatia take the lead against Wales, Mandzukic with the goal.

Denmark/Italy is about to start. I am scared.

[IAceI]

Take heart, Italy were struggling and 1-0 down to Armenia on Sunday.

Belgium v Scotland for me. Belgium nearly a goal up within 2 minutes.

[Starvinho]

Miroslav Klose opens to the scoring for Germany against Sweden, his 66th goal for Germany. He's only 2 behind Gerd Muller now.

[IAceI]

Steven Fletcher goes down holding his ankle. GET HIM OFF! SUB HIM NOW! LET HIM REST!

[Starvinho]

Klose makes it 2-0. He's getting Klose now

Also, Ireland take the lead.

Indie just got kicked in front of the linesman. No card at all

[Hobo]

Ireland 2-0 up.

[Lineker]

Great save from Courtois!

[IAceI]

Mignolet would have caught it.

[SRN]

I was just about to come here and post that Denmark were actually doing pretty good, getting the big chances and being in control of most of the offensive play.

And then Italy scores. God damn it. I hate what a beautiful goal that was.

[SRN]

And now down two goals. Fuck this sport.

[IAceI]

Just read this on twitter: " ‏@mikkelottesen

@JamesHorncastle Just a kind reminder: last ITA lost at home (99) was against Denmark. ITA were up 2-0 that night too. Ended 2-3. #believe"

Don't give up yet.

[SRN]

Well, praise that guy because 2-1! YES~!

[Starvinho]

In the battle of the minnows, it's San Marino 0-0 Moldova at HT. Come on San Marino!

[SRN]

Also that; go San Marino!

The difference in class between Belgium's strikers and the rest of their squad is huge. Benteke just not good or mature enough to be leading the line for a team looking to win a World Cup qualifying group in my opinion. Chadli, Mertens, Dembele and De Bruyne have all been good in the supporting roles but they just don't have a good enough striker it seems. Hazard and Mirallas in the bench though, and Belgium have been battering down the door all half - get the feeling it's very much a "one goal will do" match too. Scotland would have to get lucky or kick through several levels to put a move together and get a goal here, their best shot seems to be set pieces where they've come close.

EDIT: Here comes Hazard. Clearly they want the job done but you don't know how it reflects on the initial XI, as they should really have been able to win this with him.

Get Jelle Vossen on, I need to win this bet.
