The International Football Thread

Next month Finland come to Budapest, it'll be an interesting game. If you win you get a pretty promising position.

What happened to Northern Ireland? I didn't expect them to collect 9 points in the entire qualifiers...

Yeah, third place is still entirely possible for us if we win against you guys next month but otherwise it's all over and we can (again) start preparing for the next qualifiers. Disappointing...

Northern Ireland have been suprisingly good and Greece have been a disappointment, didn't see that coming.

@iceboy, keep the politics for the politics thread, please. No need to provoke any of our Serbian members. Thanks.

I'm normally against International Breaks but my god what a phenonomal run of games we had this time around. Hope we get more of this for next one. I actually enjoyed following these games.

Slovakia 2-1 Spain

Iceland 2-0 Holland

Russia 1-1 Moldova

Greece 0-2 Northern Ireland

Poland 2-0 Germany

Germany 1-1 Republic of Ireland

These games are all examples why this was the best International Break ever, hoping to see more of German destruction next time around.

You'll never know? The bastard just lifted the World Cup as captain! He retired from internationals at the literal peak.

Tell that to the people asking him questions, not him.

On the match: I am so disappointed that it ended, i wanted 90 minutes of football .

The Serbian players were kicking and elbowing our players whenever they could and we dont really care about that. There is only one rule: Don't touch our flag. The second Mitrovic touched it i knew it was going to end bad.

11 vs 40k. I'm loving it! Doesn't look so bad when it was 11 vs 11.

Luis Suarez finally admits to biting Italy's Giorgio Salami....now his team-mates Polony and Chorizzo are terrified, and Gorgonzola and Mozarella are getting frightened.....

Delighted for the boys in green. Amazing performance to get a result at the World Champions, Germany had 65% possession but in truth were shite and didn't great one decent chance all game.

Made up for O'Shea on his 100th cap. Great servant to Irish football, always gave 100% for the shirt. Big game next month against Scotland away. A win would put us in a great place for qualification. Hope to see Northern Ireland qualify too, great result in Greece.

To be fair to the players, they did manage to calm things down between each other, it was the fans that messed things up.

Fair play to Kolarov, as well.
