Subject: National Team

Australia 4:1 New Zealand
Bulgaria 1:5 Slovensko
Lietuva 3:3 Argentina
Italy 5:1 England
Bosna 4:2 Belarus

most probably we will be veryt close to reaching top32, but we won't make it...unless Bulgaria loses lots of points because of that defeat. No chance to overcome Lietuva or Bosna, most probably will make it past England. Not sure though even about that...

31 Bosna i Hercegovina 2415.55
32 England 2392.78
33 Bulgaria 2392.59
34 Australia 2387.45

5pts...only 5pts...one goal more against NZ would've given us 2nd pot...

Don't quite think so. Certainly not losing 6-0 or whatever it was to Hellas didn't help, nor did drawing with China.

Definitely.

So close!! Good effort, borkos.

i`m sorry you didn`t enter the 2`nd pot...you had some misfortune this season at some matches but this is sokker
maybe you will get an easy team from the 2`nd pot and qualify

good luck

It happens :)

I wonder who will we get in these WC Q - my bet is we will get Poland/Italy/Eesti + Nederland/Suomi

best possible imho: Poland/Norge/Osterreich + England/Portugal

lawl with the luck we've had these past few years i won't be very surprised

1. Österreich 0 0 0 0 0-0 0
2. Türkiye 0 0 0 0 0-0 0
3. Australia 0 0 0 0 0-0 0
4. New Zealand 0 0 0 0 0-0 0
5. Misr 0 0 0 0 0-0 0
6. Nicaragua 0 0 0 0 0-0 0

Interesting group.

We have a chance to get the 2nd place.

We do, we just need a few good results and to ensure we don't cough up any points against NZ.

well obviously we need at least 2 wins against Turkiye/Osterreich. Won't be easy, but it is possible to achieve with players in form&uninjured. I hope that Erdogan's injury spell will end now :)

Quite funny that we played NZ last week and now we're going to meet again in the WC Q ;).

It's a bit frustrating cause I like the 442 I used against them and Cymru...and now I have to think of something new :P.

Anyway...'crazy Turks' will probably think that they can't lose against us and this is our chance.

Osterreich is pretty strong...and they have one of the most experienced NT coaches. They've managed to get average notes over 80.0 so it would be a big achievement to get points against them.

Drum was really impressive today, in contrary to the game.
The tactic change worked nicely though, especially considering Lozanovski's early exit

Ok, I guess it would be useful to revive the official NT forum.

I mean this one - I will be able to discuss the tactics more freely out there.

If someone isn't part of the Sokkeroos association just join it and I'll add you.
