    Noely we want France to equalise against Bosnia

    OR

    Things to stay the same in the Serbia game (Serbia are losing 1-0 with an hour gone) If Serbia don't win then we're seeds.

    So only ONE of these two scenarios need to happen.

    Is that good?

    My boolean algebra is terible these days.

    I believe that simplifies to not( france to not win and serbia to win).

    Can someone confirm?

    I think that simplifies to:-

    I feel we need to use coloured bricks to explain this.

    The only set of results that would mean we are not seeded is France losing and Serbia winning

We've just go to the playoffs for the 2nd time in a row, ask any Belgian fans how they'd like that.
    they were a real test. at one point they had 70% possession. with 10 men. away from home. we are just wrong-headed on almost every level. they were gliding through midfield with skillful 1 and 2 touch play, whether with the ball on the deck or lofted to teammates in space. their close control and dynamism when dribbling obliterated ours. we get the ball in midfield and automatically take three touches before pegging it sideways or to our fullbacks. duff, one of our better players was often haring away with the ball at his feet... towards our own goal. when walters came on and did very simple things effectively, he looked a revelation.

    Yes if Sebia don't score 2 goals in the last 25 minutes, we are seeded no matter what happens in Paris.

    And yet somehow we won and we are 2nd in the group which is better than our playing resources would suggest. How do you explain that?????

    VIDIC MISSES A PENALTY! Suler was booked for fouling Krasic, but the defender's spot-kick is denied by Hamdanovic! Serbia need to win but Slovenia lead 1-0!

    Neither had anything to play for, so I doubt you could take it as read that Slovakia wouldn't have found more if they were closer.

    The ESPN commentator's saying that even with Slovenia winning, we're only the 5th seeds currently, so for one night only, it's "Allez les Bleus".

    We scored twice (largely based on us creating the majority of the chances), they scored once.

    Quite happy with that.
    Doyle missed a sitter which created the og so I don't consider the og fortunate.
    Armenia got a goal when we fell asleep. Even Shay could have done much better.
    That 2 minute period was sloppy beyond belief, all professionalism was lost in the glare of going 2 up.
    That is precisely where games can be lost. Unforgivable at this level with all the experience in our team
    Considering how Armenia have played against Russia and Slovakia we were more in control. The hyped up Armenian threat was neutralized before their goalie was sent off. When we passed it around in the 2nd half, we looked comfortable without creating anything. Probably need a bit more practice in that department

    Trap's selection of Cox was justified and Walters is our type of player, meat muscle and skill.

    I think they are including Sweden in that calculation though. They wont be involved in the playoffs however as best second placed team.
