Romania draws against Finland... really embarrassing. Lewandoswski scored 5 in 9 minutes for Bayern , the entire romanian team didn't score a single goal in 430 minutes in the weakest group possible. Now they need to win against the Faroe Islands and there's reasonable doubt they're up the task. They don't deserve to go to the EURO.

Northern Ireland - Mykonos: 3 - 1

[gadjo_dilo]

Unbelievable.....
And bloody hilarious too.
I watch football games since I was 5 yo and witnessed a lot of qualifiers campaignes of our squad. There were dramatic clashes on the last round with strong teams that ended more or less happy. But this time our last match on euro qualifiers is against Faroe Islands and all the press talks about a sort of crucial clash. Come on..... A few years ago The Faroes were called the fishermen team and now we play so poor that we fear them. Our team is a real disgrace and I wouldn't mind if we lose ( although this might mean that Hungary will qualify and you know how much I hate this team ).
Well, it's min.15 and we lead 1-0 and Hungary is lead by Mykonos also with 1-0.

You made it Gadjo......

0-3 win and Hungary losing 4-3 in Greece.

Well done. Although I bet you expect to lose games in the finals?

I expect Absurdistan to become the donkey of the Euros.
And can't wait for the Euros thread. Hope to have a laugh again with you and the rest of the gang.

Kind of surprised at the timing of this really, however also not that surprised.

International week so I guess its the best moment for a while.

I have a sneeking feeling this deal was all but done at the start of the season. LFC mentioning to Klopp that BR had a month to 6 weeks to prove he was the right choice, if things didn't go well Klopp was in after this international break. It would explain why Klopp was unemployed at the start of the season.

I feel sorry for BR, he IS a good manager and will be successful at the highest level, unfortunately things went pear shaped for him at LFC, always sad when that happens. Wish him all the best for the future, we know his name will appear in the Managers space again soon.

I support England so I am guaranteed a laugh (or cry) during the finals.

Great to see the likes of Wales and Northern Ireland qualifying after such a long break, and especially great to see Iceland making their first ever finals in any competition "vel gert Iceland!"

[steveaki13]

I agree about Iceland. Great job from them considering its no fluke. They have been improving steadily over the last 10 years and this has been on the cards

Wales have done well, but they will rely alot on Bale. Which is no bad thing unless he gets injured and then they will struggle.

Why, no internet there?

Yeah time zone is a bit challenging
