Looking like another good round of matches all round with England winning 1-0 in Estonia and Wales getting a 2-1 home win against Cyprus over the last couple of days. At half time tonight Scotland are 1-1 at Poland, Eire are holding Germany away 0-0 (our narrow defeat is starting to look like a poor result now!) and N.Ireland could be heading towards the result of the night, leading 1-0 in Greece in the battle of Kyle Lafferty versus the poor man's Kyle Lafferty (Georgios Samaras).
Mixed fortunes so far in the 2nd half. Scotland took a 2-1 lead but we've just been pegged back to 2-2 and Eire have fallen behind in Germany, but Northern Ireland have doubled their lead in Greece through Lafferty.
N. Ireland see out their 2-0 win, Scotland hold Poland 2-2, and Eire, having been pummelled for the entire match, somehow squeak a last minute equalizer to leave Scotland as the only side so far not to take anything off Germany.
What should on any other day have been a good point to take from Poland doesn't help us hugely with things going as they are. It might come down to us and Germany scrapping for third!
