norsefox Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 Poland could conceivably lose to German and Ireland. If we beat Georgia & Gibraltar, draw with Poland and lose to Germany - we qualify on H2H (assuming the draw is 0-0 or 1-1) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we beat Georgia & Gibraltar, draw with Poland and lose to Germany - we qualify on H2H (assuming the draw is 0-0 or 1-1) As soon as the fixture were announced, I thought that we would be going into the last game needing a win against Gibraltar and the correct result in Warsaw the same night. Looks like it could well go that way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

norsefox Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 Can't see Ireland winning in Poland but a draw is possible I thought that initially too. That said, Poland were lucky to escape with a draw in Dublin, and if results were to take shape as above, Ireland would make the playoffs at Poland's expense.

fanatyk Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 Poland were lucky to escape with a draw in Dublin Not really. We dominated first half, they dominated second. They scored the equalizer in a last minute but we had a great scoring opportunity in stoppage time just after that. So you could also say Ireland was lucky too. It won`t matter in upcoming games anyway. Each one is a new chapter. Irealand will need a great improvement for remaining games plus combination of other results in group to qualify, whereas Poland, Scotland and Germany got everything in their hands at the moment. Friday could come a bit quicker though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Friday could come a bit quicker though. At the moment i think the most likely result is for Poland to win the group, Germany 2nd and Scotland 3rd. I might change my mind on that after Friday though. It's just great for us to be involved in such a tight group. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fanatyk Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 We need at least draw on friday to keep the chance for 1st place. But i`m not that greedy and would take the 2nd any time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thewolf_1980 Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 Us beating Gibraltar is nailed on. Us failing to qualify because we failed to beat Gibraltar in the last game would be the most Scottish thing in the world... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But i`m not that greedy and would take the 2nd any time If you are going to stay top of the group, I would prefer for you to do it in style by going all out attack and defeat Germany 3-0. I want none of this "play for a draw" nonsense. a draw doesn't help Scotland at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We will probably have to counter just to let the defence have a bit of a breath. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McDange Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 This is a fun site for messing with your head - http://ultra.zone/UEFA-EURO-2016-qualifying#group=d When you start putting results in, Germany beating Poland always looks best. Ugh - there are some absolutely bowfin scenarios in there. If we don't beat Georgia then it's game over in terms of automatic qualification Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toepoke Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 Yeah highly unlikely. Although we'll probably have to win one of those games to qualify even if we do get a result in Tbilisi... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
