very important information in eIreland
Russia, go to hell!
Nataliia +
Alan Dzagoev the best
They will definitely go through. I saw them play Ireland in the qualifiers and they destroyed us both times. We were lucky to get a point in Moscow which was mainly thanks to heroics from Given and Dunne and a lot of luck.
We played you in qualifying and you were excellent.I was very impressed by Dzagoev in dublin!You have an excellent team and you will do well!Also that is a relatively good group so you should go through for sure.Good luck 🙂
Well I can see your copy/paste skills from wikipedia are excellent.
I like check republic's chances, they played quite well in 2004 and don't forget Greece won in 2004 wen the odds were 150-1 against them.
where is akinfeev?
Joffrey, yea, but we only lost to Russia in that tournament! Russia 2 - Greece 1 😛
I think Check Republic has good chances too though.
