Quotesky commentary saying its a weakened spain sideOriginally Posted by DannyInvincible
We're hoping for a Ukraine victory over Spain, right? That would ensure Ukraine go through as best third-placed finisher (assuming Slovakia in that group beat Luxembourg) and consign Hungary (who are ranked below us) to the play-offs.
Ukraine have made a strong start. Are Spain playing a second-string or is this their full-strength team?

edit: and now spain have a pen. but they miss it...

No I read that this morning and don't think it's right. Hungary will have more coefficient points according to football seeding.com. Which is unofficial but looks to be on the button. The official coefficient hasn't been updated since sept. The advantage in Ukraine winning for Ireland is that they will qualify automatically and we won't have to meet them. Hungary would be a nice draw for us.
Ukranian fans shining a laser pen in Fabregas's eyes and face as he prepares to take the penalty.....utter assh%les
seems the commentators on sky aren't aware that a ukraine win would very likely give them best 3rd place. they have said ukraine are DOOMED to a playoff now given slovakia are 3-0 up in luxembourg.
So then it's very very likely to be one of Denmark, Sweden, Ukraine or Bosnia for us.

maybe it's the curls.
Luxembourg making a comeback.
Lux are on a comeback from the dead v Slovakia. now 2-3 and their blood is up.
ukraine lose, slovakia win. despite the loss ukraine looked pretty strong - would be a horrible draw for us.
Slovakia finish 2nd, Ukraine into the playoffs.
Ukraine aren't what they use to be, no Voronin these days.

Starting to look clear. Currently seeds are Ukraine, Sweden, Croatia and Bosnia with Denmark likely to be promoted to seed if Croatia seal automatic qualification tomorrow (they need a favour from Italy which looks likely).
We are next in line for promotion if anything funny happens between Cyprus, Israel and Bosnia. But Turkey could take that chance away from us for themselves with a win against Iceland or hand our chance to Netherlands with a loss.
Who to believe
well they are the highest ranked 3rd place team in the co-efficients we've been poring over the past few days...Who to believe
we need the 4 results I mentioned at the beginning to come in and we're seeded.
That would depend on how you rate Voronin.Who to believe
Yes or a turkey defeat works too if Netherlands don't take advantage.
