I have to say well played to them today. Showed us how a smaller nation should go about it.

This should mean Eriksen will get a nice rest which is good for United.

'smaller nation'

Do we have a definition?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Smaller in terms of football stature. I doubt Australia would have been tipped by many to go through.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Probably on a par with Wales TBF

see Australia.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Australia population is like 25 million.
Wales like 3 million.

I don't think they're in the same class lad.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
But they're not a major footballing nation
----------------------------------------------------------------------
They're at the WC ranked ahead of 6 other teams that are there ffs!
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Qatar, Saudi and?

19th too high for the team at the moment. Results wise it's been a pretty poor year. Beating Austria and Ukraine in the play offa the only wins I think. I suppose they were the games we most wanted to win.

I'm not sure the rankings are an accurate reflection anyway in some cases.

FIFA rankings are a load of bollix tbf. Every country in England's group was ranked in the top 20, yet we all know that England are the only actual top 20 nation amongst that group.

Tbf to Wales, I think your performances over the last 5 years have been good enough to justify a decent ranking position. But if you look at performances over say the last 12 months or so and the ability of the squad in the here and now, then you'd say not so much.

No I don't think they are either. Iran were 20th I believe?
