But if Scotland actually win this game 1-0 in 90 mins that’s not good enough? WTF!! How is that fair?? I think the qualifying results come into play as well as the scores tonight. I can’t be bothered reading about it again as I nearly had a stroke the last time. Any sort of win will be good enough for Ireland I think.

scotlad Posted October 11, 2022 Share Posted October 11, 2022 Ireland looking the more likely at the moment, albeit their most dangerous tactic is the long throw into the box (how Irish is that?? 😂). Can't believe they didn't take the lead just before half-time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Templeton_Peck Posted October 11, 2022 Share Posted October 11, 2022 Surely goals scored in extra time dont count towards the goal difference as not all teams will play those extra minutes. Common sense surely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stockholm 1980 Posted October 11, 2022 Share Posted October 11, 2022 Only watching this for a financial interest, but how Portugal draw 1-1 then win 4-1 AET and get 3 points and the goal difference added to their qualifying record is utter madness. It should be a 1-1 draw and 1 point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weekevie04 Posted October 11, 2022 Share Posted October 11, 2022 They've been poor for a few years now. Well deserved Ireland, we can't complain - struggled to break them down and then it's punt it up front as the tactic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scotlad Posted October 11, 2022 Share Posted October 11, 2022 The better team won. Ireland were well-organised, focussed and determined. Basically they looked like they wanted it more. Cannae miss a penalty and create virtually no real chances and expect to win games. Scotland got what they deserved. 🤷♂️ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
