Group B - Russia, Slovakia, Eire...

This is approaching Arsenal 0-0 CSKA Moscow levels here.

Dreadful cross from Ward.

And now Ward just puts a simple pass out of play. :haha:

Pissing down with rain here and ruining the Sky reception

I missed the chance Russia had

Someone from the host broadcaster has left the stats screen filling the screen. :doh:

Duff off, Hunt on.

How long are they going to keep the stats up? :doh:

Dunne GHELled Zhirkov then Dunne's face hit the draining around the running track. :sick:

Dunne booked

Misses the next game

Zhirkov off, Billy on.

The ref telling Ireland to sub Dunne off :lol:

They're drawing a number on Dunne's new shirt.

:haha:

:lol:

That number 5 looked pretty decent tbh considering it was done in a rush

Arshavin. :bow:

Hunt booked.

Hunt booked for a challenge on Arshavin

Billy completely skies one. :doh:

What the hell is Billy doing?

Arshavin's freekick just headed wide.

Zyryanov heads straight at Given. Shocker of a miss.

Three added minutes.

0-0 full time. How it ended like that I don't really know.

Arshavin was Russia's best player by a mile.

Pat Bonner said Ireland were excellent. From where I was sitting, I thought they were pretty poor, and lucky to come away with a draw. They defended well, granted, but they needed to put in last ditch tackles because they were so sloppy in possession.

Yeah it's the kind of performance we have come to expect from a opposing team at the Emirates. Just with barely any quality.

1-0 Macedonia

Still 0-0 in Slovakia in the 2nd half there now

0-1 Armenia

Slovakia :doh:

Dont count Armenia out for a play off place

0-3 Armenia :blink:

They'll only be a point behind Ireland

:haha:

Should be a pretty good final round of games next month then. :popcorn:

0-4 FT

WTF?

Armenia before these qualifiers were San Marinoesque

I hope they do it tbh

Come on Armenia

7/10/11 Armenia v Macedonia

7/10/11 Andorra v Republic of Ireland

7/10/11 Slovakia v Russia

11/10/11 Republic of Ireland v Armenia

11/10/11 Russia v Andorra

Armenia :bow:

They have to beat Ireland

It's still Slovakia 0-0 Russia. :popcorn:

:dance:

Not good news for Armenia that

Ireland top as it stands

Slovakia 0-1 Russia, Dzagoev.

Sign him up, Arsene.

Andorra 0-2 Ireland, McGeady.

All Irish eyes are probably looking at the game in Slovakia

If Slovakia equalise then Ireland are top with one game to go.

If it stays as it is, Russia are top and a game with Andorra at home

Russia win

Think we can safely say they will be there next summer barring a massive shock

Ireland v Armenia for the play off spot

Come on Armenia

We might see a happy Arshavin.

Keane is out of the game tomorrow
