Bully Wee Villa Posted September 20, 2016 Author Share Posted September 20, 2016 Iceland levelled but Scotland back in front. Half an hour to go, 2-1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spectre Posted September 20, 2016 Share Posted September 20, 2016 Good result, missing some key players as well. Really should have done better in the home game against Iceland. Should have been looking to finish this group top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bully Wee Villa Posted September 20, 2016 Author Share Posted September 20, 2016 Iceland are a good side. Three points off then is a decent outcome and suggests we have a chance of getting through the groups next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dogmc Posted September 21, 2016 Share Posted September 21, 2016 Only game i saw was the home one v Iceland. Must have been a huge improvement since then. Great achievement Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bring Your Own Socks Posted September 21, 2016 Share Posted September 21, 2016 Well done to all involved. First ever major championship qualifying so it'll be a challenge in the finals but the Women's team have came a long way to get there. Arguably a bigger journey than the Men's team.

Bully Wee Villa Posted September 21, 2016 Author Share Posted September 21, 2016 Draw for the Finals is 8th November.I'm assuming the seedings will be based on UEFA rankings prior to the playoffs but can't find them anywhere. According to the rankings at the start of the qualifying campaign we would be in the bottom seeded group, but I wonder if we may have sneaked up a place into the third seeded group given seven wins out of eight including away to Iceland in qualifying. Top Seeds (based on rankings before qualifying):Netherlands (as hosts)GermanyFranceSwedenSecond Seeds:NorwayEnglandItalySpainThird Seeds:Iceland RussiaDenmarkSwitzerlandBottom Seeds:ScotlandAustriaBelgiumRomania or Portugal (playoff winners).As it stands, Germany look the team to avoid in Pot One while I wouldn't fancy Norway or England in Pot Two.

Bully Wee Villa Posted September 21, 2016 Author Share Posted September 21, 2016 Cheers. I did consider them but I expect it'll be based on UEFA coefficients not FIFA rankings as it was in Euro 2013. In men's football there is usually a significant difference between the two not sure how pronounced the variation is in the women's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bully Wee Villa Posted September 21, 2016 Author Share Posted September 21, 2016 That's more like it, cheers! Up to date to June so won't include the latest results. Likely to be at least third seeds on that basis I reckon then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
