Faster Posted September 3, 2006 Report Share Posted September 3, 2006 Spain won 4-0 in the Nuevo Vivero Stadium of Badajoz, not 1-0 It was the last game to be completed, so I just put the interim score. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Olympian2004 Posted September 6, 2006 Report Share Posted September 6, 2006 Any thoughts ahead of tonight's games? Somehow, I'd like to see Finland turn Portugal over. I'm very curious how the French will perform against the Italians. It's absolutely great that they can repeat that World Cup final only two months later. And considering Italy's performance against Lithuania last Saturday, the Italians could possibly face another disgraceful result. My prediction: France v Italy 1-0 In terms of the match of our team against San Marino, I'm pretty certain that we'll achieve a clear victory. Maybe our record against "dwarf teams" wasn't always the best (e.g. only a 2-1 respectively a 2-0 against the Faroe Islands in the Euro 2004 qualifiers) but this time, our team's World Cup spirit should still be strong enough to give a good performance in Serravalle. My prediction: San Marino v Germany 0-6 My other predictions: Albania v Romania 0-2 Armenia v Belgium 1-1 Azerbaijan v Kazakhstan 1-3 Bosnia-Herzegovina v Hungary 0-0 Bulgaria v Slovenia 2-1 FYR Macedonia v England 0-2 Finland v Portugal 1-1 Holland v Belarus 2-0 Iceland v Denmark 0-2 Israel v Andorra 2-2 Lithuania v Scotland 0-1 Northern Ireland v Spain 0-3 Norway v Moldova 2-1 Poland v Serbia 1-0 Russia v Croatia 1-2 Slovakia v Czech Republic 1-2 Sweden v Liechtenstein 4-0 Turkey v Malta 3-1 Ukraine v Georgia 2-1 Actually, those are no European qualifiers -- but just to complete the picture: Austria v Venezuela 1-1 Switzerland v Costa Rica 2-0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only hope that "azzurri" will fight as they use to do in difficult situations and obtain a tie score. But, if Italy win ................

arwebb Posted September 6, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 6, 2006 Different game and different time to the World Cup final. While France will be keen for revenge, I feel Italy are bound to improve for their game at the weekend. I'm going for a draw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

arwebb Posted September 6, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 6, 2006 Latest result. Group B Lithuania 1-2 Scotland. Perfect start for Walter Smith's side. I don't think the Tartan Army should be getting carried away, but they are making progress. The big three nations in that group should certainly be wary.

Olympian2004 Posted September 6, 2006 Report Share Posted September 6, 2006 Wow!!! What a night! Although it's actually not really impressing to win against San Marino -- but this 13-0 of the German team has set some new records, though: -- It's the second-highest victory in the history of the German team. The highest was a 16-0 against Russia in 1912, and the other second-highest victory was a 13-0 against Finland in 1940. -- It's the highest victory ever scored by the German team abroad. -- It's the highest victory any team has ever achieved against San Marino. -- And it's of course the highest victory of the German team ever in the qualifiers for a World Cup or an Euro. And the Germans achieved some great goals tonight -- not only lame ones advantaged by the weakness of the San Marinese. Thus I'm very impressed that our team still manages to keep its World Cup level. This is certainly the best German football we've ever seen during the past 16 years (since the last World Cup title in 1990). Guys, you are simply fantastic! And now I'm waiting for the end of the "revival of the World Cup final" -- and it seems as if Italy will have many, many worries after this night...

Faster Posted September 6, 2006 Report Share Posted September 6, 2006 Overall some great results, Spain's lose will give hope to both Denmark and Sweden to knock Spain off. I have mixed emotions about Germany's 13-0 win, but oh well at least they won and will have GD on there sides. Love that Italy lost to France, what an amazing result. Also go Norway.

You predicted Spain would lost with Serbia and Montenegro... We didn't. You predicted Spain would lost with Lithuania.... We didn't You predicted an Argentina vs. USA final.

arwebb Posted September 7, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 7, 2006 Meanwhile, speculation is growing that Northern Ireland manager Lawrie Sanchez could be on his way out of Windsor Park. Sanchez's future as boss in doubt (BBC Sport) The IFA has to do everything it can to keep Sanchez in his job. He's doing a tremendous job ad he should be allowed to get on with it, because there's only one way they're going under him and that's up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
