  1. which one? I'm not watching - work (looking for a stream though)
  2. Let's just throw all the qualifiers in her for today because I was looking at the board and DAMN there's some interesting things going on. Asia - Their automatic teams are in (8) there is the final match for the Intercontinental playoff today - Iraq vs UAE (1-1 after the first leg) UEFA - they have their final matchday of auto qualifiers today. A few groups have head to head deciding matches where the winner is in and the loser is in their playoff. The team in italics is the one which advances with a draw: Group B - Kosovo v Switzerland (Kosovo would need to erase +11 GD in the game) Group C - Scotland v Denmark Group E - Spain v Turkiye (Turkiye would need to erase +14 GD in the game) Group H - Austria v Bosnia and Herzegovina Group J is also in play Belgium v Liechtenstein and Wales v North Macedonia - Belgium is in with a win or likely draw. If they lose, an outright winner in Wales-N. Macedonia can get the spot CONCACAF - I haven't paid attention to qualifying because the US is already in, but when I pulled it up the groups are topped with names that shock me: Group A - Suriname (9 pts, +5 GD) and Panama (9, +2) top the group, today's matches Guatemala v Suriname and Panama v El Salvador Group B - Curacao (11) and Jamaica (10) play head to head in Jamaica tonight Group C - Honduras (8, +3), Haiti (8,+1) and Costa Rica (6, +2) are all in the mix. Tonight Costa Rica v Honduras and Haiti v Nicaragua Second placed teams are ranked and top 2 of 3 go to the intercontinental playoff. I am rooting for Suriname, Curacao and Haiti for 2 reasons: 1- if they make it in, much cooler. 2- the teams that would fall to the intercontinental playoff would be much more likely to make the playoff than those 3 teams that would likely get the floor mopped with them.

  4. Yeah Germany can't lose, otherwise they fall to the playoff and Slovakia would be in. But Germany is making short work of this, already up 2-0 in the 35'
  5. The correct answer. Also the real victims here - anyone that read this story.
  6. I'm hoping that they find a way to miss out on the 48 team World Cup. That would be hilarious.
  7. He was great. Hell, he took a shot that was akin to the goals he scored against Jamaica or Costa Rica (deflected for a corner). He looked good. I couldn't put my finger on it, but I thought he was outplayed by Arfsten (I saw Arfsten a lot more than I did Dest), but Tactical Manager pretty much nailed it in his 7 things we learned (Lesson 6 at 10:00) - for reasons that can't be explained, Scally was coming up the field and occupying the space which Dest could have gone into, usually ending his runs much shorter than expected, so the tactics handcuffed Dest, when he should have been allowed to run free. Still I think Dest is a great fit as a WB, because it's all the offensive play we expect of him without the defensive responsibilities. Win WIn.
  8. Back from a week long work trip in Germany. Glad to be back.

  9. How was there only 1 red and more importantly, why didn't the player that put our man in a headlock get a red? Was it mentioned that the ref sucked?
  10. Handbags and very dumb because that wasn’t needed. Woah this got big.
  11. Damn this should be done and dusted. Pepsi with a sitter and just waited too long on it.
  12. The team in the last 10-15 minutes has really shown the hustle and pressure they lacked. It’s some good stuff. The goal was a direct result of that play.
  13. Guatemalan ref. The lack of quality doesn't shock.
  14. This ref sucks. Let's cross body blocks go, calls touch fouls 5 seconds later.
  15. Damn. Hell of a goal to tie the game.
  16. Ok Gio, gut check time.
  17. Can you do something about it? Like what, kill him again?
  18. I wish I had time to order some Döner and take some food pictures. But alas no luck.
  19. Sean Zawadzki, we hardly knew ya ...
  20. RIP 39. Dude should just retire for how shitty that dive was. Maybe they just euthanized him on the field.
