Euro 2024 Qualifiers

[CafeCordoba]

no matter who the coach is, Italy should be defeating Macedonia 9/10 times... But its the coaches job not to pick trash players... And i dont think this will change with Spalletti... who is also not that good of a coach anyway.... so good luck. All i hope is that if they somehow lose to Ukraine, Inter players wont get picked for these qualifiers anymore.

What are you talking about? It's not like there are some stash of great players in Italy who aren't in the NT already.

This was more on Mancini not building properly on that Euros victory. Players are good enough.

Guess, I'll kinda watch Finland vs Denmark today.

What a tough loss for us. We almost had it (the draw), just one loss of focus at 86mins and Denmark punishes immediately.

Now it's up to us not losing to Slovenia away. If we do it, it might be over for us.

Yeah, only hoping that Eriksen did well but no dog in this fixture. Finland appeared to be playing for a tie late in 2nd half and it cost them.

Bulgaria lost again. Used to be a strong team. What hasppened?

Hasn't been in 25 years... The Bulgarian Football Federation is a joke. Bobi Mihaylov, the goalkeeper of that '94 team that finished 4th in the World Cup, is a complete retard, a drunk and doesn't want to let go of his power as the head of the Federation. It's a long story. I don't even try to follow. There is no football in Bulgaria anymore.

What a great win last night. I don't remember last time a performance like this, of course taking into consideration a serious opponent like Poland.

It's not like we created plenty of opportunities, but the game itself was never a threat except of that canceled goal by Poland in the first half (due to offside). Poland didn't create much as well, so it was predicted to be a difficult game for both teams, except that we have shown more desire to win.

Asllani was great in overall, especially in first half. Sylvinho has so much faith on him. He was also asked by Albanian reporters regarding Inter and how he feels about the lack of playing time or a potential loan in any other club, but Asllani didn't seem to be willing for a loan. He said he's a dream to play for Inter and he wants to prove himself when given a chance. He said he has only Hakan ahead of him so he was confident that he will get much more playing time this season and together with mangement they decided for Asllani to remain in the club. Also spoke a few words about Hakan and said that he's helping him so much.

As a group it was a great performance but a few of them were absolutely fantastic. Ismajli and Djimsiti were impossible to break, then Ramadani was unbelievable in the midfield. He's not a creative midfielder but the guy is an engine. He was everywhere in the pitch, won almost every duel.

Hansi Flick about to get fired. Losing at home 1-3 to Japan... Thats what you get for playing fucking Schlotterbeck as a LB... Gosens also gifted Japan a goal.

and its 1-4. lol

Japan also beat them at the World Cup. They play great counterattacking football <3

Wasn't he the coach for Portugal awhile back? Anyway, may watch the Armenia vs Croatia match over the lunch hour.

 

[pupivn]

No idea why he’s hired, did they think him plus an aging super star striker equally winning? That wouldn’t work second time hehe

Armenia-Croatia, 0:1, 30th minute, first half.

 

[Dave54]

Armenian goalie is Serbian.

 

[Dave54]

Perisic, Modric and Brozo are the best for Croatia. Gvardiol is solid too. 0:1 at halftime.

 

[Raul Duke]

Armenia don’t look like scoring. Lucky if it stays 1-0

 

[Dave54]

You never know. But clearly, Croatia is a stronger side.

 

[DiegoMilito22]

I hate international break

 

[Ethor]

Interesting match, MOTM Armenia 's goalkeeper 0-1, Croatia!

 

[crzdcolombian]

I hate international break

hate it during the weekends..... like defiantly missing seeing Inter play. Sunday felt odd.

You telling me the Italian team, with players that all play in pretty damn good clubs, can't defeat this team, cause they are not good enough? Please name me 3 clubs from those club badges, other than Napoli.... Italian C team should be able to win these kind of matches. No excuse... Congrats to Macedonia, they fought well and deserve the point, but an Italian team, that is in a big need of win, should win this, or at least dominate like crazy... I just noticed, these guys started a player that has no club. lol Italy and Spalletti.

@IM21, do you even realize that everyone can play football these days? Just because you don't own high-profile players doesn't automatically means you're off. There's so many teams whom pulled miracles just by having a strong group and being tactically strict in their duties.

You have many examples just in recent times how Kazakhstan managed to comeback against Denmark while being down 2-0 in first half. Won spectacularly 3-2 in the end. Exact scenario happened with Moldava against Poland.

My point is that even those "small" teams can cause damage to top teams as long as they put in real effort and stay disciplined to their game. No disrespect to anyone but if you're judging teams based on their status or players then you're not up to date with football these day.

Small team or not, Italy has failed to win over them for last 3 matches, two draws, one loss, with 3 different coaches. Last win was from 2016. It does speak a volume.
