Considered Spain in the same tier as England over the last couple of years.... but with Morata, Isco, Asensio, Ramos, and De Gea....favorites to win the WC along with Germany, Portugal, and Mexico.

Isco destroyed Verratti
Verratti only looks vs French L1 baguette players![]()

Still in control of their own destiny. They won't need their rival to bail em out, 14 WCQ style.

Watching the replay of Austria/Wales now; two evenly yoked teams. Good stuff, honestly.
Lmfao we just did, last night. You could've been 4th place right now as we speak

Not even comparable...

Wales with the 1-0 win. Bale with an awesome bicycle kick that didn't find the back of the net...
Watched Austria beat Turkey 2-0. First goal was offside and second goal passed the goal line before the assist. But the Turks!

Great free kick by Finland in their 1-0 win at home against Iceland. That sucks. Finland are pretenders and Iceland are for real, imo. Iceland playing the last 15 mins with only ten on a pretty spotty red card. Hopefully Iceland still qualifies.
Up next, Lichenstein vs. Albania; talk about a match-up of minnows. Albania won the first WCQ against Lichenstein 2-0 if I heard right. Announcer just said Lichensetein looking for their first point; I guess I'll root for the little guy.

0-2. Only one goal in seven qualifiers for Lichenstein now.

Scores that pop out:
Spain beatdown of Italy.
Ireland only getting the draw vs. Georgia.
Israel losing to Moldova.
Croatia in a scoreless draw against Kosovo.
Ghana-Congo 1-1.

yet they're constantly getting outplayed by minor midget teams
btw you s also look unconvincing tbh..
. stop overdosing tbh. this spain team has asenjo/isco up front , which was the true missing piece for spain : skilled, intelligent and quick AMs/wings who can benefit from both their creative midfield and from the explosive spanish counter attack. Spain will pose a lot of trouble for any team they'll meet .. if they gel properly they could be one of the best attacking sides in memory tbh : positional, counter, set pieces, flank play, possession play, they have everything covered tbh... pretty scary seeing them manhandle italy like that tbh
imo the spanish coach destroyed the italian one... it was obvious they had no solution for the deep runs, de rossi shouldn't have started he got in many wrong positions, etc. It's also very hard to play from behind against spain tbh, these s penalize you for any mistake with quick counters yet they like to keep the ball .. frustrating position tbh.
son
icyland are the latest one hit wonder squad and they're allowed to foul the out of teams because of it, when they can't keep up physically they are , see vs france at euro, france nigballed them a new one tbh.
also albania >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> liechtenstein, albania plays better then the USA tbh, check their euro games from '16, like any yugoslav football school inspired team they can actually play the game. You might laugh but that's reality, also their better players play for switzerlandso albania could've actually assembled a nice squad tbh if the players actually wanted to represent their country and not some $$$.
Denmark is a dark horse for maybe getting into the knockout qualifiers
we also had a tough game in Prague, it was expected tbh.
Euro Qualifiers is by far the worst. No real tension whatsover. They need to strip two spots from europe and have south America-Africa-شAsia fight for a spot.
That tie was clearly fixed tbh, both teams waving the white flag in the second half after knowing Chile was assraped by Paraguay.
usa needs more spots, panama are too hard to beat![]()

North America should lose a spot too. Criminal how they have 3.5 with ty quality and small number of countries....Dat USA influence.
The real numbers should be, if we consider number of countries and quality
Europ 10
South America 4 automatic and 5th and 6th place fighitng against other continents for two more spots//Potentially 6
Africa 6 Automatic and 1 playoff spot..Potential 7
Asia 4 Automatic and 2 Playoff spot...Potentially 6
CONCACRAP 2 Automatic and 1 playoff spot..Mexico is the only realy team in CONCACRAP anyway and costa rica...All other teams are terrible plus there's like 6 countries in CONCACRAP
OCEANIA 1 Playoff spot
I agree with both posts ^
US of Gay should be out of World Cup. Unfortunately thing$ don't work that way

France![]()
Speaking of overrated NTs, Belgium is in the WC.
