italy are realing playing poorly now. Del Piero getting booed by the Udinese fans! Georgia are just one good chance from pulling off a shock here.
Italy 2-0 up. De Rossi
<edit>
full time 2-0
2-0. Italy broke away to score the second. The Georgians camped in the Italian half for the last 15 mins but like Saturday lacked a bit of guile up front. The ref was a disgrace. Complete homer and kept giving the Italian's free kicks for falling over. It should be some game when we play them.
Just listeing to Roberto Gotta (Serie A correspondant) on Off The Ball, he was saying that Georgia sat back and tried to hit Italy on the break?
It looked like Italy were going to score a hat load in the first 20 or so mins then Georgia gradually got back into the game. For the last 15 mins Georgia camped out in the Italian half and created about 3 excellent chances. Bufoon came off his line twice to make 2 last ditch tackles. Gotta must have been watching a different game.Quote:

Next up for them is a double at home
Cyprus Oct 11th
Bulgaria Oct 15th.
I'd prefer if they were playing Bulgaria 1st as I'd say they would have a great chance of winning it. By playing Cyprus 1st they may pick up injuries or suspensions for the game on Wednesday giving Bulgaria an easier game.
It won't be an easy game for Cyprus though and then they have to travel here to play us on the Wednesday. We should have a fully rested and fit squad for that game so that we can pay them back with a 3 or 4 nil drubbing for the last campaigns shambles!!!
If we win 1-0 I'd be very very happy.Quote:

I have some kind of filling that it will end up like that.
I think this is a stream of the Bulgaria match but I can't get it to play:

/its half time though (0-0) so probably best to try in a few minutes.
Have the game on here in work. It is quite even - very few chances - I would guess it will finish 0-0. 65 mins gone.
Come on Georgia!
0-0 full time:):p.
I'll take that!!
Great result for us. Bulgaria have dropped points. Cyprus will be a handful for a lot of teams.
We just need to beat Georgia at home and then Bulgaria will need to come to Ireland looking for the win.
Bulgaria has given us a 2 point advantage by drawing with Georgia, and perhaps more importantly they don't look like world beaters and were lucky to get a draw. Kudos to the FAI for removing home field advantage for our 'away' game with Georgia, that could end up being the difference at the end of this campaign :)
If we can beat Georgia and Bulgaria next year we will be in great shape.
Agreed. I'd like to have ten points from the first four games when Bulgaria come to town. It'd represent what would be, collectively, an excellent start.Quote:

ya we should be looking to top this group. 2nd place is to much of a lottery with play off and one group isnt even guaranteed that. italy are no world beaters. georgia did us a huge favour last night against bulgaria.
We lost to Italy 2-1.It was equal game.We had five great chances(when I say great I mean that,one on one with goalkeeper and in one situacion one on one with only Zambrota) and also two dangerous free kicks.Italy had four great chances and four or five dangerous shoots from distance.Only difference is that they scored twice and we scored only once.In the last 20 minutes I think that Italians spent at least ten minutes lying down on the ground:mad:.They and Bulgarians are same concerning that.When they have result they are droping like flies and when they dont have result you can not bring them down whatever you do.
The worst think abou this match is that Vucinic got yellow card(his second)so he will not be able to play in next match against same opponent in Podgorica:(.
We really don not have any luck.
Was over on the Tranny Army website earlier on and the sweaties reckon whoever comes 2nd in our group will be the lowest placed 2nd and won't make the playoffs.
Then again they could just be trying to make themselves feel better.
Way too early to call this.Quote:

Actually Scotland is currently in last place of the second place teams:

We're in 6th place but only having played 2 games against the top 5 teams in our group while the others all have played 3.

Some of the highlights of the Italy-Montenegro game.Esspecially our two chances you can see near the end of clip.Also,you can see how stupid our defence is.
This video does not include two great Italian and one our chance.I dont know why.
Is that not wrong cos the only team we've dropped points against is the bottom ranked team and it shouldn't count?Quote:

It's points against the bottom finishing team that don't count for play-off purposes. Doesn't make sense for it to be the bottom ranked team, especially with new teams coming in.
A refreshing change to hear a manager unafraid to at least have aspirations on the top spot.

You hope the results against the team the finishes bottom doesn't count, why? Surely it would be better for Ireland if it was the results against the lowest seeded team that didn't count, since we have already dropped 2 points to the lowest seeded team Monty, but we should take maximum points against Georgia who will most likely finish bottom, i.e. we would probably be at least 2 points better off it the results against Monty didn't count rather than GeorgiaQuote:

This isn't great news for us. Could bring their current Managers tenure to an end quite quickly.Quote:
