Steven Davis starts, and captains Northern Ireland away to Azerbaijan in Baku.

Playing against a desolate wasteland on the edge of Europe with no notable professional teams who couldn't beat Luxembourg in two attempts, Azerbaijan do have a chance.



Might watch Croatia v Belgium.
 
Now confirmed...

ENGLAND: Hart; Walker, Jagielka, Cahill, Baines; Gerrard, Lampard; Townsend, Rooney, Welbeck; Sturridge.


P.S. Is this thread going to be used for the England game or are we resurrecting the England Qualifiers (Lambert) thread?

Er.... why not the "Team for Montenegro thread"?
 
^ 2-1 to Belgium, so Croatia are in the play offs. Where they will inevitably play England.
 
Dani has just scored an absolute beauty for Italy.

*EDIT* Basically ball over the top into the left channel, he's getting there first got two defenders on him, one covering his inside (Agger I think) and one gaining ground behind him, heading away from goal and on his wrong foot, his first touch with it coming down from about a 40 yard pass he beautifully nutmegs the defender on his inside, slips between the two of them and then second touch slots it into the bottom right corner from the edge of the box.

More of this against United please Dani!
 
FT: Denmark 2-2 Italy

Dani Osvaldo scores the opener and plays a significant part in the late equaliser. Denmark are out of qualification.

Feels weird watching Italy play and the Italian #10 being a Southampton player. I bet Nicola loves it.
