Wayne you're back and alive. I'm really not fond of the starting line-up. Good thing England won.

WALES ARE OFFICIALLY BETTER AT FOOTBALL THAN ENGLAND!

That look on Hodgson's face in your profile pic is probably the same look on his face he had when reading that

Kevin De bryune scores and assists for Belguim. He has easily been the best player on the pitch.

The Belgian commentator said City had scored against Chelsea.

Bloody Belgians :-)

Great penalty by Eden after being brought down.

BALEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!

BALEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!

Congrats to Wales (despite the 'we're ranked higher than England' gloating that I'll experience at work). What a strong defence and a brilliant header from Bale.

It shows England what real team spirit can achieve.

Cymru am byth!! (Can I pass myself off as Welsh by the time of the Euro's?!!).

They worked seriously hard for that. Awful pitch, crazy humidity, rubbish ref (Still can't work out why he disallowed Edwards' goal), solid opponents.

 

Tempted to get down to Cardiff for the Israel game.

It was a hard won three points.

I know very little about the Israeli football team but there seems to be a consensus that Wales can win on Sunday (touch wood). There'll be a cracking atmosphere at the City ground.

Pffft. And you consider yourself a football fan?!

Good to see so many 'underdogs' doing well in their respective qualifying groups. Iceland, Wales, Northern Ireland, and Austria look set for automatic qualification, hopefully Albania too.

Not only doing well, The Special One.

Iceland and Wales are really very good!

First of all well done Wales, but Iceland beating Holland away is one hell of a result. Italy just scraping a win against Malta is also worth a mention.

1 Percent of the Iceland population was in Amsterdan tonight. Unbelievable.

I couldn't take my customary lunchtime stroll yesterday, pity I missed those 3 Icelanders :-)

 , 3 Icelanders.

 

Mijn vrienden uit Amsterdam schreven gisteren net hetzelfde, Valerie. Maar het klonk bitter. Heb maar niet gereageerd. Vooral Blind moest het ontgelden. Vind ik een beetje vreemd voor Ajax-fans.

In English please, so other readers understand as well.

I don't care at all about the Netherlands national team. I'm a club girl, plus the adoration of Oranje makes me sick. Wouldn't mind a Euro summer without orange bunting and other orange crap :-)

Go Belgium!

De Bruyne was outstanding.

Scotland have to win tonight to stand a chance of progression.

Would love to see Wales play against England. Honestly I reckon Wales would have a good chance of winning. Sit back and attack Cahill and co. using Bale's pace. Sure, England have better individuals overall but Wales would have the best player on the pitch and perhaps a better team ethic.

No team with Simon Church in the squad is going to cause England any problems.

 

That said, Andy King is a legend.

I was surprised to hear Courtois speak Flemish on Belgian tv, I thought he was Wallonian and therefore French-speaking.

His mother is Flemish.

Pffft. And you consider yourself a football fan?!

Only things I know about them is the keeper Israeli good, full back Israeli good, midfielder Israeli good and the striker is.....sh*t.
