World Cup qualifiers - Qatar 2022


Recommended Posts

Watching both Wales and Ireland, so probably missing both games ; but that keeper looks alright for Ireland.

Serbia a lot of huff and puff, but they look the better side. Kenny did well with the Irish U21s. A point would be a very good result here, plus the Serbs having to come to Dublin later - with potentially at least some form of a crowd.

I've got Lukaku for 2+ goals, so mon the bigman in the next 45.

Ireland did alright. A tough game and fairly unlucky not to grab a point there. Maybe its turning around for Kenny. After praising the keeper in the first half, he might hae done better for the second and third goal.

How exactly did Hoddle wriggle out of the whole "sins in a previous life bullshit" to hold down a job like this.

If you applied that logic, you'd need to block most Buddhists from being employed on British tv.

Anyway, good to have the qualifiers up and running. Some pretty interesting results.

Interesting to see where Ireland end up. I know they've had a shocking run, but I wouldn't put it past them to do well in this group. Tonight's result is no disaster.

Suriname won their first qualifier 3-0 against Cayman Islands. This was their first ever competitive match with players who were born and/or grew up in The Netherlands, meaning they now have a much stronger team. Pretty much there entire team is full-time, with quite a few players playing for Dutch, English and other European clubs. Considering their population is less than Luxembourg, that's quite something.

Ex St Mirren, St Johnstone and Hamilton player Nigel Hasselbaink has been called up for Suriname

He was in their starting 11. He played for my club Excelsior after leaving Scotland and has been playing in the Israeli top flight from 2017.
