Starting off with Armenia vs. Ireland...
it’s a decent first half… Wouldn’t say it was an easy three points for the Irish.
Coming out for the second half now
Should be a fun one

Doyle’s chance just now was the story of the first half… They could easily be in front, but Armenia have held their own here…
Ireland really don't seem to be very fluid out there

They've got to settle down and get some possession in that midfield
Er… AHAHAHAHAHA KEANE

Ireland are all over the shop in the back...
Doyle is the only player that looks like he can do something useful…
He does have a ... Keane ... eye for goal

And he has one chance there for a first time finish
Doesn’t even shoot

Ireland need to continue with a more direct approach...
the short passing isn’t working since the midfield don’t take more than three touches, and it seems to confuse the Armenian defence every time a long ball is played…
Good result for Ireland
Made it hard for themselves though, didn’t they?

Moldova vs. Finland takes my fancy for now...
Turkey are 2 up at Kazakhstan, while Russie have probably done their business for the night with an early goal at Andorra…
I'll be switching to the Faroe Islands vs. Serbia at halftime

Faroe Islands 0-2 Serbia...
Free-kick from Stankovic.
I don’t understand why smaller teams always set up with a 4-4-1-1, and only applying pressure around their box… At least have a go, spring a surprise or two, no?
2-3-5
Might lose 11-2, but hey two goals

Also I heard they could have got him for less than a million a year ago!
Sun journalist Steve Brenner on Twitter: “New Man Utd signing Bebe sensational for Portugal U21s so far. Sensationally ineffective.”
ZM making some good points about Portugal on twitter. Anyone think Cyrpus grabs a point at home (Portugal w/out Ronaldo, Portugal has tendency to draw against European teams).
Kazakhstan 0-3 Turkey [FT]
Turan 24’, Altintop 26’, Nihat 76’;
Montenegro are beating the crap out of Wales so far...
but somehow, it’s still 0-0.
Goal for Montenegro...
Vucinic strikes an impressive goal…
Faroe Islands 0-3 Serbia [FT]
Lazovic 14’, Stankovic 18’, Zigic 90’;
Georgia are one up at Greece...
shock of the night so far…
