Match Day Thread Wales v Belarus

Great result. A very good frenetic start and I think we've found Nico Williams' position!

 

It will be interesting to see if Northern Ireland can take anything off Italy tonight and give Switzerland an opportunity to get the automatic spot.

Portugal lost 1-2 to Serbia last night which means they are in the play-offs and the Dutch are trying hard to mess it up. They were 2-0 up in Montenegro who then scored twice in the last 10 minutes for a draw.

 

I don't think anyone involved in the playoffs wants Portugal in there!

 

Another reason to get a point tomorrow night - home match and avoiding Ronaldo

 

Only the best six runners-up out of 10 get seeded and a home draw. Wales' position is a bit precarious in that respect?

 

Agreed - but finishing 3rd in the group will definitely mean that we would be an unseeded team

 

Getting a point against Belgium would secure second place in the group but would not definitely guarantee Wales home advantage in the play-offs as one of the best six runners up. A win over Belgium would do the job, I suspect, but there are lots of other matches which come into play e.g. if Scotland beat Denmark.

 

I agree - a win would do the trick, but a point may not.

 

Italy heading for the play-offs as things stand after 60 mins Sorry azzuriswan.

 

That's made my night.
