How did. Or way not make this but Luxembourg did?
So strange that 3 teams in our group made the playoff, in what was considered one of the worst groups
It was one of the worst groups
If all our players are fit we should be able to have a chance against Israel. Ukraine on the other hand, no chance we are going to beat them.
Yes as an Israeli I would say it’s 50/50 on paper, but since we always bottle important games it’ll probably be different on the field… in favour of you of course.
You should be excluded from qualifiers
Besides Ukraine already getting used to the constantly “away” games, B&H away may be a little trouble with their fans, I think.
Bosnia lost at home to Slovakia and Luxembourg, and finished 5th (below Iceland too) in the Group.
They wouldn’t make it even in the League C path.
It’s the best draw Ukraine could have.
B&H fans even gave applause to Luxembourg NT after the loss. The fans also hate the federation for various reasons. It’s not the best chemistry between B&H NT and their fans right now
Nice. We’re often fumble the bag in the playoffs, but things seem very promising with Rebrov as a manager. Love this man and love what he’s doing to the national team. On a side note, I have a weird feeling that Luxembourg will qualify. It would be epic to see at least.
I think all neutrals will want to see Luxembourg get in, because it would be such an achievement for a team that is usually such a minnow, and also because they actually play good football and score some great goals too
Or Kazakhstan
Sure, why not, for similar reasons, although not as small as Lux, and I don’t know their style of play
Nothing even against Georgia, seeing Kvara at a major tournament would be great, and I don’t know what Greece are like these days but surely not as defensive as they used to be right
No interest in watching Georgian players rolling around. Shower of cheating cunts. I don’t think Luxembourg have qualified for any tournament before. Good luck to them!
Which is strange because they are double the population of Iceland for example
Weirdly enough, they wouldn’t be the smallest country to get in, that would still be Iceland. Yet to me Luxembourg feels way more obscure than Iceland, but they actually have twice the population
I looked this up, and you’re right
Mind is COMPLETELY blown, I had absolutely no idea about the populations, apparently even montenegro has slightly less people then lux
I feel people kinda fuse Luxembourg and Liechtenstein together. Liechtenstein has a way smaller population (only 40k), but still liken to Luxembourg with it’s geography, nature, size and being small, but with rich people. So confusing the two or mixing them together is understandable.
Rebrov was a very good coach for Ferencváros also.
Luxembourg will qualify
Euro Group stage -58 goal difference incoming. /^S
I mean with this stupid format everyone has a realistic shot on reaching the KO stage. Including Luxembourg if they reach the main competition
You’ll be good if we’re at anything below 100% strength. Even then I’d still see you as clear favorites because we’re mental midgets when it counts. The only way I’d fancy us is if all our key players are there and you’re missing a few like Dovbyk, Tsygankov, and Zinchenko. Otherwise, enjoy Germany next summer!
It’s absolutely amazing just how kind those qualifiers were to Poland.
And yet we still won’t advance.
But it’s always like that after any draw. We are the happiest people in the world until it’s time to play some actual football.
We’re the undisputed champion of draws and group stage mathematics
Can’t wait for the Finlandia vodka memes when we face them in 2nd round.
Nah, who am I kidding, we’re not even beating Estonia…
We would need to beat Georgia away to make the Euro. Not a walk in the park but if we can’t do it probably we don’t belong to the Euro.
Ukraine has to be smiling with this draw, so does Wales who have 2 home matches.
Ukraine should be already on Euro (yes, penalty is not a goal, but still), so not really
Israel v Ukraine - battle of the oppressed nations! Love it
Battle of the fascists
No
Israel oppressed??
Yes they’ve been attacked by Iran and Hamas
They are the oppressors you silly goose
Rooting for Luxembourg. They are playing a really positive football.
Israel is in Europe? Wtf?
Luxembourg has a chance I think.
How were these determined anyway, until yesterday I only saw like half the spots filled
Estonia, Iceland and Georgia
Cheering on Iceland so
