I don't find them the most interesting because half of their continent qualifies to the World Cup, and Argentina and Brazil will always qualify. But there is always good football and it's exciting to watch, especially with those southamerican fans.

Asian qualifiers are boring, always the same results and the teams never improve their level.

 

 

 

Actually Group B is quite interesting, four teams are almost equal in the table and Japan is really struggling. still I hope for no surprise in this group, even though I usually cheer for underdogs but this time I hope Japan and Aussies make it for our own sake in case we finish 3rd in our group.

 

and it's hard to like Saudi Arabia, the most disgusting team in the world. :wacko: UAE is a likeable team though

Nah, the 4 teams are already decided. UAE or KSA don't have the level in the long run to push them out. I had hope for a new team with Uzbekistan but it seems they are also weaker than previous years. Probably the 5th team will lose to Honduras or something.

:ITA not good match for us (1st half :facepalm:) but at least we didn't lose (streak is  now at 52 qualifying matches, over 10 years). Little bit better the 2nd half, if we "playing"  we can reach good results. Spain was better than us, but we fightingt, as always, until the end!! :thumbup:

 

I think no one of Albanian people have ever dreamed a 1st place in front Italy and Spain :smoke:  But it's not a dream ...... :bowdown::ALB and :yes mr De Biasi

 

Asia: no surprises; despite Japan doesn't seem a strong team as past years (but is improbable that remains off from TOP 3)

 

South America: begin with the defeat of :CHI (4th lost) only 11pts at half of qualifying is not much, the WC 2018 is so fa away ........:cry:

    • Linn Gestblom (previously Persson) Will miss all season. Not recovered after surgery.
    • Greece and Portugal also have winter sports centres - but of course these are not homologated routes for World Cup competitions I have never been to Albania personally, so I don't know the country at all. I have been in southern Croatia, though, and there are mountains there but you definitely can't ski there (I was there in the summer, but it's also impossible in the winter). World cup taking place there only in Zagreb.    In general the case of Colturi and Kostelic is completely different: Colturi has no ties to Albania and Janica Kostelic was Croatian and didn't left their country even though at the beginning of her carrier (and also her brother Ivica) her father had to pay for everything and the federation's support was zero. This only changed later. I imagine that the Kostelic family had offers from other countries (Austria, Switzerland, Italy?) to compete for them, which were much richer (at the beginning of the 21st century Croatia was a very poor country and devastated by war). All the more respect for them because they were true Croatian patriots until the end. I can imagine the Colturi family in a similar situation... Her mother would probably negotiate with half of Alpine Europe for Lara to compete for them Which of course doesn't change the fact that the Italian federation completely gave a shit in this situation. They let such talent go in a situation where they hasn`t a single female athlete on the podium of the World Cup in slalom for a dozen or so years. In the giant slalom it's not much better either, only there the older athletes cloud the picture: Brignone and Bassino. However, behind these two there is absolutely nothing...
    • Atalanta is probably playing the most beautiful football in Europe right now: spectacular and effective. It's nice to watch and they don't have to spend a lot of money for it.   Inter is playing very economically. It's not impressive but it's consistently collecting points. It's also the only team in the Champions League that hasn't conceded a goal this season.   Milan played very poorly yesterday but they won. They have 9 points and are close to qualifying for the play-offs.
