2018 World Cup Qualifiers

Fucking hell, Darmian is so poor going forward. Italy keep attacking down the left, but he hasn't managed to put one decent cross into the box yet. 

[Baddar]

Sweden have done it!

You wouldn't want to be Ventura in the presser afterwards.

Bringing out references to conspiracy theories might actually be quite handy.

that's absolutely crazy that Italy are out as well. Delighted for Gustav Svensson, it's rad that a Sounder played the bulk of such an important match.

Buffon is Einhorn! Einforn is Buffon!

I will bathe in the tears of Italy.

New Zealand held Peru to a 0-0 draw. All to play for in the second leg mid-week.

Same result as the Australia/Honduras tie from the weekend, Only difference is that the Kiwis need to steal a win in Peru where's we get the home fixture.

Would love to see both get through but I'll take one.

Be quite a shock if Italy don't qualify 

Are you shocked?

Revenge is a dish best served...flat packed.

Thank you Sweden <3

Can't believe they thought they'd win with Marco Gabbiadini up top. 

[Adam]

The last 6 play off matches over this weekend have ended in 0-0 draws.

So it's not just England who are dull.

[MDK]

I think it is top level international football that is too dull.

[Gazz]

It's more that these games bring about approaches that are more set up for 'not losing', rather than 'winning'.

I knew this match would look something like 70% possession for Italy as Sweden just worked to prevent a goal, and maybe catch Italy flat footed and run in an easy goal to seal the deal. It obviously worked for Sweden. Nice to see them back in the World Cup after a few years away.

Ireland 1-0 up!

2-1 Vikings

Can't wait to inevitably draw Sweden in the Group Stages of the World Cup!!! 

Do away goals count in the Playoffs btw?

Yes. Ireland need to score 2 without reply.

Eriksson! I hope he has a cracking World Cup.
