We will just have to play good defense and Hasagic needs to start he has more experience. And I think we will do fine, I hope we get Greece though.

showed apprecation to my national team for the great qualification stage, yeah we could make the play-offs, but we, Latvia, still beat Israel per example and finished above them... so yeah I went to the game last night, it was like +2 degrees, 3 goals by Latvia, football has such a great atmosphere, the cold, the stadium lights on and the night all around the stadium...loved it

Hell yeah man and when you have amazing supports it helps also, it's so much fun then. You sign your songs and wave your flag and wave your banner it's amazing feeling and so much more!

The October FIFA rank has came out and Latvia has reached the highest place ever, we're 47th. Damn this will be a long year till the next qualification stage, this team really can repeat the Euro 2004 miracle.

We are 42nd now, we should be top 30 at least. These ranks screwed up over and now we are in Pot B.




Happy to see a black guy cheering for us! Woooooah!

2:1 win for Russia. Pretty much controlled the whole game except for last 10 minutes and let them score a goal in 82nd minute...Pavlyuchenko, Ignashevich had some good opportunities . I think it won't be easy in Slovenia...

Russia screw themselves for leting Slovenia score that goal IN RUSSIA! Because is Slovenia scores just one goal in Slovenia and Russia doesn't score at all. It will be 2-2 on the aggregate but Slovenia will go through because away goal is worth more! That is something what FIFA came up with, I personally think that is retarded and it should just go to 2 extra times and penalties, but they made the away goal worth more.

So if Russia want to win this, just get a draw or Russia must score 1 goal at least to end Slovenia.

God damn, we're down 1 zip at the half.

Bilyatedinov's (spelling?) first goal was a real beauty.

Jebiga, it was a great run and a BIG CHANCE at the 89. I have no clue how the **** that didn't go in.. my god, this sucks.
