Israel 2 - 1 Russia - We're Still In It!
Israel started well, but come the second half I was getting worried that they were throwing the game as so many passes were going astray it just looked odd.
As they approached injury time the Israelis proved they cared and wanted to win by a great goal from Golan.
England now only need a draw against Croatia at home on Wednesday, but with so many players out injured or suspended, it won't be easy.
I'm hoping that Croatia get a win against Macedonia as they won't have to win to finish first. But with Russia's loss, they've qualified.
Anyone want to club together to pay for some "win bonuses" for the Andorran players next week?

Hi, am I right or wrong in saying that if England draw with Croatia 0-0 and Russia win 6-0 against Andorra then surely Russia go through on goal difference !!!!!!Everyone keeps saying a draw for England is certain qualification.
I was thinking that whilst looking at the tables last night. Then I remembered that UEFA are doing the "head to head" record to work out who goes ahead if two teams are level on points. They stopped doing goal difference.
We beat them 3-0 then they beat us 2-1 so that means we'd go ahead.
Not the right way to qualify, but I'll take anything!
