No far less exciting. The Aussies did though pull off a sports movie trope bringing in a ringer. A 6’6” Scotsman whose mum just happens to be Australian. He scored 2 goals on debut.

I dont know about you but I'm stoked for St. Vincent and the Grenadines' huge clash against Suriname!
This could be the year for SVATG! Vincy Heat!

Austria up 1-0 in Slovenia, despite missing Alaba and Arnautovic through injury.

HELL YEAH!!!!! That should do it. Never thought they'd have a shot after losing those first two games, but Israel collapsed and neither Macedonia nor Slovenia have been good enough on a constant basis.

They have played before without any problems.
They played in 1993 in Doha in probably the greatest World Qualifying Group ever.
The Asian Hex, Japan, South Korea, North Korea, Saudi Arabia, Iran, Iraq. To qualify for the US World Cup.
5 matches in 13 days.

Ukraine up early on Portugal, now 2-0. If they hang on to win they will top the group. Awesome!

Brutal, brutal 2nd yellow and penalty given to Portugal. These hand balls are getting a bit much.

it's so, so shameful that UEFA talks about tackling racism and then does nothing. I mean, it's not surprising, but disappointing nonetheless. These countries never learn unless you throw the book at them.

Uefa confirmed on Tuesday that its control, ethics and disciplinary body had opted to impose a two-match stadium ban – one match longer than is usual for a second offence – as well as ordering the Bulgaria Football Union to pay a €75,000 fine. However, the second will be suspended during a probationary period of two years.
that'll teach them!

"Say Ehh to Racism" actually has a decent ring to it.
