sorry to say can only see one winner and not us after such an abject performance last night

That's the spirit

The fixture list throws up an interesting plot twist here.
How would we feel if we were home to North Macedonia on a friday night and then travelling to Belgium for a Monday fixture?
With a 2 week break such a short turn around seems odd. Maybe something we can take advantage of, because North Macedonia aren't going to roll over and let Belgium win easily. If they can really make them work and then load them onto a plane it might help us out.
Okay that is asd many straws as i can see to clutch at right now

Reality is that unless North Macedonia get a draw tonight we can’t win the group even if we beat Belgium.

A good performance and ideally a draw/win is definitely needed after last night though!

We're playing for second place and I hope that Belgium smash them tonight.

Been shit in the last 2 friendlies and Bellamy seems to be losing the plot slightly.

I would take a draw if it was offered here and now.

U21s lost 7-0 at home to Belgium

 

[JackFish]

Belgium 0-0 Macedonia after an hour. If they can hold out for a draw that would be a great result for us. At least in terms of winning the group, not so good if we’re battling NM for second.

Despite what I said here, the draw tonight makes Monday very interesting (clearly we need to be far better than we have been in this qualification group).

Beat North Macedonia & Liechtenstein in November and guaranteed second place. Get a win on Monday too and off to the states (would make up for that ‘93 Romania game!)

 

[JackFish]

Finished 0-0 in Belgium. Win on Monday puts us in pole position.

North Macedonia are incredibly difficult to play against. Full of all the dark arts and an extremely effective parking of the bus. Unbeaten in six games and only two goals conceded.

Massive game
