Subject: [u21] Friendly Vs Hungary

you did well to come through that ! I think we need to finish in the top 32 to get 2nd ranking in the draws next time, is that right ? 16 qualifying groups ?

Yes thats right. You can still get nasty suprises though in the lower ranks.

Well, I can't see us ending up anywhere but in the 2nd pot to be honest. Beating a 2nd placed Belgium gave us only 40 points.

Yes you need a real decent run to get up the rankings, I won 9 games with the NT on the trot. My ranking did rise but not hugely.
