    All matches played simultaneously, should be fun.

    All matches still 0-0, with the exception of Georgia-Belarus (1-0 to the home side)

    I'm glancing at Scotland-Israel. Israel had a good spell at the beginning, but it's been mostly Scotland in the past few minutes.

    I'm concentrating on Iceland-Romania because it has a direct impact on Austria's Euro group.

    Gylfi has just given Iceland the lead with a Gylfi goal.

    I hope Hungary make it. They are the real victims of Salzburg being (slightly) hit by COVID (which they might or might not have contracted in the CL qualifiers against Maccabi Tel Aviv), because Szoboszlai had to pull out of their squad.

    Kosovo's equaliser against North Macedonia was the kind of goal that might

    Norway is very lucky to have 0:0 at HT, Mitrovic had a sitter,
    crazy what he missed, Serbia also had a couple of good chances
    in the first 15 minutes.
    Haaland barely visible, had a header from the corner, cleared
    on the line by Maksimovic.
    Had more expectations from this match, too many passing errors,
    tempo isn't really high.

    SMS and Jovic on the bench just shows how hard is to predict anything
    with Serbia.

    In other interesting links between the Israeli NT and RSS, Andy Herzog resigned from the head coach position in June, and has been replaced by fellow Austrian Willi Ruttensteiner.

    Now Golasa with almost a golazo, but his shot sails just over the bar.

    As in the Nations League against Austria, Romania conjure up a goal out of nowhere and pull one back thanks to a VAR penalty. I'm sure there was an elbow somewhere in there, but a spot kick like this one would have never been given in the days before video refereeing.

    BTW the torch has been taken over by Dor Hugi, four goals in his first four league matches.

    Gylfi just made it two. Yes!!!

    As in the Nations League against Austria, Romania conjure up a goal out of nowhere and pull one back thanks to a VAR penalty. I'm sure there was an elbow somewhere in there, but a spot kick like this one would have never been given in the days before video refereeing.
    2-1 FT
    Hannes Halld||rsson hasn't had to save a single shot all night, but Romania almost had a second VAR penalty awarded for handball (I think I would have given it, elbow stuck out). I had already prepared a post how the Weauxf Godz were mean and spiteful.
    North Macedonia or Georgia the fourth team in our group instead of Romania in Bucharest. Foda you lucky bastard.

    penalties in SCO-ISR and BIH-NIR too.
    Scotland hit the post with the last shot of the match (another header off a corner kick), after Shon Weissman had come inches away from latching onto an inswinging cross six meters from goal.

    Irresistible force/unmovable object? Those were some unexpectedly good penalties by Scotland though (except the first that squirmed under Marciano...)

    Sorry for you guys. I seriously like your team - Weissman, Dabbur, Zahavi, and Maccabi Tel Aviv players like Biton and Golasa who played their hearts out against Salzburg. I wonder if that's the end of the Austrian experiment?

    Scotland is the source of the changeover to 24 teams in Euro to
    fave more chance to qualify (and then for 2012, they were the
    FIRST team eliminated, before Malta, Faroe or Andorra).

    Will they success do qualify this time ? The suspense is

    So, now, the Group F is definitively the group of death with

    Yup, we see that with Alphonso too. Though third tier might be
    generous. Come to think of it, it is pretty generous to Scotland as
    well. The current team is pretty limited, and when you take out players
    like Tierney, Armstrong, and others due to COVID, then get Cooper and
    few others injured, I am not sure they could beat Canada.

    HT: 0-1
    After a nervy start, Hungary has definitely improved and created a number of half chances, but also leaving some room at the back for Icelandic breaks. Quite entertaining so far.

    SRB - SCO 0-0

    Maybe. Is that something VAR can review?

    Anyway, Iceland has had a good run, but this team was basically identical to the one that played in Euro2016. I've gotten a little bit tired of their shtick, and glad to see some new faces.

    Penalties it is. Usually you don't win two shoot-outs in a row?

    Hungary are at home to Portugal and France - could an upset be on the cards? Scotland get home games with Czech Republic and Croatia and are away to England. If they finish third conceivably they could be at home again in the round of 16 against the winner of Group E (SpainrCOs group). Exciting times.

    I had no way of watching this here, but was keeping track on the
    computer. When Serbia equalized I was pretty sure that Scotland had, in time-honored fashion, snatched defeat from the jaws of victory yet
    again. But this very limited side has shown some resilience (and oodles
    of luck) under Clark, so they move on to a major finals for the first
    time since 1998. There is very little talent in this side, and I would
    argue that not even Robertson, for all his positive impact with
    Liverpool, would have got into the starting lineup in 1982 or 1986, for example. Certainly not 1974. Well, good luck to them. A few points in
    the next two away games vs. Slovakia and Israel and they may even win
    their group in the European Nations League as well. I believe that
    earns them a shot at a playoff for the WC qualifiers, if they don't earn
    a spot in some other way ?

    The U21 side has been doing quite well and may yet qualify for the finals.

    Real Mardin, so how do the actual 24 teams in the Euros compare to the
    voting competition you ran in summer? I think Norway qualified for that
    in spite of my votes to the contrary.

    I have to count on Scotland to save us from neverending politics,


    After they beat Norway one of the Vucic's tabloids (Kurir) was screaming
    on the cover:
    "Croats, you are next. We'll trash Scots and then neighbors".

    I won't lie, I love when euphoria gets to them and then they hit the

    Is a part of you not just a little bit sad that we won't get to see a Croatia v Serbia derby at the Euros?

    Don't get me wrong, I wanted Scotland to win, but in an ideal World we'd be able to watch England v Scotland AND Croatia v Serbia at the finals tournament.

    In short, I want focus to be on football and not politics. And you have
    to see
    how cocky they can get, like they are Brazil or some other top team, not someone
    who didn't qualify for EURO in 20 (at least 24 now) years.

    I absolutely hate politics and what it has done to the region not that
    long ago,
    our politicians are scum and their are much worse, I'm pretty sure there
    is some
    deal between them to fire up the masses whenever there are some
    elections, then
    they start talking about neighbors. And for many people the wounds are
    still fresh
    and there are many unresolved issues between 2 countries. Just few weeks
    ago,
    25 years after the war, some Serbs were arrested for war crimes.

    We are now spared of all that and even if England beats us, I won't care :)

    There are other opinions of course, I've noticed many comments from my
    country that
    they wanted Serbia to show them once again who is the boss in the region,
    but there is a lot of uncertainty about this EURO because of Covid, we
    are in a process
    of generation change, you are from Turkey and you could have seen 3 days
    ago our defense
    is not the best at the moment, group is already tricky and having a
    derby in the last
    round which could determine who goes in the knockout phase would just
    made it unnecessarily
    more complicated.

    Losing to Scotland in potentially deciding match wouldn't hurt at all,
    let them
    be happy, we had plenty of our share, you can't compare that to losing
    against Serbia :)

    They're one of the very few teams you've never won against! (three draws, two defeats)


    We never beat any South American team on the World Cup before, not even
    a draw and
    then Argentina came :)

    Those 2 defeats against Scotland were when Igor Stimac was a manager https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Igor_%C5%A0timac#Croatia_national_team

    A guy whose previous job was a TV commentator, never managed any team
    outside domestic league,
    a guy involved in shady businesses with some criminals including Zdravko
    Mamic who
    appointed him as a national team manager. Then he got rid of him after
    2nd defeat against Scotland.

    Contrary to his managerial abilities, Stimac had some cocky statements
    before those matches
    with Scotland and then Scots shut him up and sacked him, there are so
    many reasons to love Scotland :)
