FORZA CROATIA...are you gonna see the match in live Fillipo??

Yeah,we can't say he can't play for NT because he had good games in Euro 2008 qualifications.

Russia 2-1 Wales, 10 minutes to go.

Well done Russia, you're struggling to beat a team that could barely beat 10 man Azerbaijan..

Russia are playing really poorly... they have almost no direction. Looks like they were only one tournament wonders... they simply don't have endurance... Arshavin in particular is fragile...

Isn't there a match between Ukraine and the 'Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan' scheduled for today too? After this one. Wonder whether Sheva is playing?

The Russians fitness is quite amazingly poor, which is very surprising since they're a cold weather country. The showed it all at the Euro's really, having to play 3/4 games in the space of a few weeks is just too much for them, they were completely out of steam against Spain, had nothing left.

Ukraine-Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan is currently underway. Can't find info on lineups, though. Score in the 45th is Ukraine 1 - 0 Kazakhstan, goal by Nazarenko.

Shevchenko scored for the Ukraine in the 54th min. It's now 2-0.

Kazakhstan pull one back, 1-2 now

You gotta love Borat.

Sheva scored... tho Kazakhstan pulled one back..

Australia have just won 1-0 in Uzbekistan.. I've only just realised they're playing Asian teams all the time. How come they no longer play in the Oceania qualifying area?

Faroe Islands 0-0 Romania HT

What is wrong with Romania, this is shocking, especially after their big defeat at the weekend!

Wow. Romania is looking bad. I hear Mutu is no longer playing for the national team...

Where did you hear that, Giancarlo? Got a link?

And yeah, the Romania result is shocking.

As for Team Oz...I don't remember the whole story but I think they wanted to move to the Asia qualifying group for some reason or another.

Moldova 1-0 Israel after 10 minutes!

Final score Ukraine 3 - Kazakhstan 1.

Double by Nazarenko, One by Shevchenko

any live streams for the italy match?

10 man Romania have finally taken the lead against the Faroe Islands, Cocis with the goal.

Italy vs Georgia

spank you

Please win.

For those in North America, Gol TV is showing the Italy game live.

i dont understand why he starts. i would much rather crouch (is he injured?)

Not called up, Habitant. Capello likes Heskey for some reason.

Crouch just wasn't called up. The only reason for Heskey to ever be in an England squad is the great understanding he has with Owen.. but Owen isn't in the squad so I don't see the point of Heskey.

HT Finland 2 - 1 Germany

....

Here's Italy's lineup:

Buffon; Zambrotta, Legrottaglie, Cannavaro, Dossena; Pirlo, De Rossi, Aquilani; Camoranesi, Di Natale, Toni

Thankfully, Legro passed the late fitness test.

Pretty strong back four I think... Italy should do fine... hopefully Legro is in good shape..

i'm glad dossena started good depth at LB, legro... well he's just a ptch for now..

aquilani will score

HEheh.

Any mistakes by our favorite player on the other side?

toni did well to turn his defender but then goes down, was held a lil tho...

zambro?

It's kinda surprising that Toni is playing. I thought Del Piero or Iaquinta would have started over him. He's in poor form.

Hab, no.... our favorite player... Kakha.

oh haha hasnt really seen much of the ball

How is Italy looking so far?

managing the ball well, just hard to break down right now. toni just played a ,..

GOAL!!! DE ROSSI

AMAZING GOAL!

35 yards , top right hand corner!

Whoa... and this is all on a channel on TV I don't have (Goltv)... grr... the good thing is, it was pretty early on too... early for Italy... at what? The 17th minute?

GOAL De Rossi!

Pirlo with the #10 shirt

Oh and the English are playing a very tactically oriented game ... I like

haha i missed it live because i was responding to you.

ya italy was managing the ball well, toni played a nice through ball to di natale who was though on goal but two defenders on his back and his shot just clipped a defenders heal and went wifde, a few half chances.

but now italy is dominating possession and creating.

thy're sending in some nice crosses to toni but he just isnt moving enough.

Here is a shocker... Germany 2 - Finland 3... lol... so far that is...

The Germans have a defense in worse shape than anyone else...

Hey kurt, I see you on here... how is England doing?

his most beautiful one for italy, 2nd only to the one he scored against france

I'm really sorry about that. Get to watching. Glad to hear Italy is being creative... that's the way to do it. The last time we faced the Georgians... they gave us a difficult time.
