They are playing Shaq really wide bit of a waste really. But quality when he gets it He put a brilliant ball in earlier. Also it takes two to mark him which occupies two opponents in wide positions so creates a bit more precious space centrally. And with the way NI play space really is the final frontier.

Shaq in the box versus 6 foot tall NI defenders made my shitty day a bit better!

Greece got one back. Then Croatia went 3-1 up again straight away!

N Ireland are shit. Period They are well organised but it does feel like a matter of time before they concede.

A team whose only hope for a goal is a Lafferty header from a set piece doesnt deserve to be anywhere near the World Cup Talentless is an understatement Playing to their strengths though. They could attack more and be 3 down by now. If they get 0-0 here the second leg will be slightly more open because they know an away goal would nearly seal the qualification.

That's the worst handball penalty decision I've ever seen, I think.
