An unbelievable drama happend today. Our most important player, the man of glass, Arjen Robben, got injuried again! He had to be substituted early in the first half. To make things even worse, centre Martins Indi was sent off for punching his opponent. We were already having trouble finding a way to get through Iceland's defense and it ended up being a mission impossible with 10 players. Right back Van Der Wiel made a foul in the box, penalty for Iceland; 0-1. Yes, we actually lost to these Scandinavians, who lead group A with 18 points gathered in 7 matches. The Netherlands are now gonna focus on the play-off spot (3rd place). That's our last chance to qualify for the Euros and therefore we HAVE to defeat Turkey on Sunday.
Norway had an excellent night as their win over Bulgaria keeps them in 3rd place in group H with only 1 point behind Croatia. Wales look really strong in group B and they only need one more victory to reach Euro 2016. Will it happen on Sunday? Wales vs Israel. Gareth Bale?
Yes the officials were hopeless with three (including one for City's opener) eye-wateringly bad missed offside calls that led to goals and City were still probably the better side for most parts of the game, but it just goes to show that losing a number of key players effects even the strongest and richest of clubs. Spurs certainly played their part though and (again despite the linesman's errors) were brilliant in their workrate, effort and teamwork. My initial assessment of Son in his Sunderland debut that he needed to quickly realise the pace and speed of the Premier League seems to have taken him just that single game. Since then he's been brilliant and brought to Tottenham exactly what was missing with his constant running and hassling of opponents whilst also adding in classy touches and the kind of movement that stretches defences.
) helped ease the pressure, but right now the man most likely to get Brendan sacked is Brendan himself.
