No Hendrick, you can't claim that you didn't see the Dane point at the injured player. Not buying it.

Ireland's stadium looks proper shit on the box. What's the deal with only having about ten rows at one of the short ends?

Yeah thanks, Norway were as comfortable as I've ever seen then. Totally dominant and should've scored two or three more.

Have to bear in mind that Slovenia lost to Cyprus last month though. They are proper shit these days.

The Aviva is a good modern stadium (51k) but they probably won't sell many tickets tonight so probably closed off sections to save face.

No that's not what I'm talking about, it's the left end of the ground that is stupidly short and looks like something you'd find in the National League. Did they run out of money or just forget that a football ground has four sides?

Apparently, there is housing near to northern stand (the small stand) and it may have been built like that to allow sunlight to reach the houses.

Holland are growing into this game, Germany are complacent.

Wiki..
The stadium is a bowl shape with four tiers on three sides of the ground; the lower and upper tiers being for general access, the second and third levels feed the second tier for premium tickets and the fourth tier for corporate boxes. The northern end of the stadium, due to its proximity to local housing, incorporates only the lower tier of the bowl. The North Stand is to be the away stand for football internationals. There is one basement level and seven storeys of floors including ground level. The premium level holds 10,000 spectators, while the box level holds 1,300.[2] The remaining 38,700 seats are shared between the top and bottom tiers. The capacity of the stadium was criticised even before its opening for being too small, particularly in light of the large supporter attendance figures for Irish rugby internationals and soccer internationals at Croke Parksince 2007.[14] The stadium's roof is designed to undulate in a wave-like manner so as to avoid blocking light to local residences.[15]

The Krauts must really be in the dumps right now if they lose to a team that couldn't even make the World Cup.

I really like the UEFA Nations League
The smaller teams have a much bigger chance of getting points and make history (like today with Gibraltar)
And the big teams plays each other and most of these games are good to watch
