England have an important qualifier against Ukraine tonight.

If we win this one we'll be well on our way to automatic qualification, which is something we desperately need after last years failiure to qualify for the European Championships.

C'MON! *PUMPS MUSCLES!*

Australia is the first team to qualify for the World Cup, after beating the Uzbekis 2-0!

Huge win for France over Lithuania.

Bolivia are up 4-1 over Argentina right now.

Edit: Make that 5-1 now.

[ysabel]

I'm glad France won. I expected them to score earlier, it was agonising to wait until the last minutes.

Scotland 2 iceland 1 puts us 2nd in group 9

[Millz]

Bolivia over Argentina? WTF is that all about and how is that possible?

[Echoes]

Dominant 3-0 win for the US over Trinidad & Tobago. Hattrick for Jozy Altidore, the 19 year old. He's the future of the US national team.

Honduras lead Mexico 2-0 in the first half. Go Honduras!

Actually they haven't officially qualified yet.

I've heard of this player, there is alot of interest in him, espacially from the big European clubs. You've seen him in action Echoes, is he the real deal?


A decent victory for England yesterday, they sneaked a 2-1 win over Ukraine with a winner in the last five minutes from our captain John Terry.
Five wins out of five, looks like we should qualify but there's still work to be done yet.

Scotland also won which keeps their hopes alive.

Altidore seems like the real deal. He got the hat trick last night and admitted he wasn't in good enough shape yet...that's a good sign for USA soccer. We pretty much dominated the entire game...I dont even remember an instance in which I was worried.

And how the **** does Mexico lose to Honduras? And AT HOME for that matter? Mexico, I'm sure, will still qualify but that's pathetic.
