We played better than vs. Japan and about on par with our performance vs. Colombia. I am worried about the amount of goals we are suddenly conceding. We were very solid defensively during qualifying, but since then we have shipped seven goals in just three games...
Did you see Wales v Iceland already? Even without Ramsey 3 - 1 ... it's settled they're going to dominate our group.
Pretty boring and sloppy match, not worthy watching, I couldn't wait for it to be over. Embarrassing and completely lackluster, low energy, flaccid performance from our guys.
we havnt played well against a decent team in a year , our coach hs coaching ability comparable to that of a turkey sandwich , the guy is a moron , however if by some miracle we can get a tactician like Vahid halilhodzic after the WC then we can have a good game with you guys because we dont lake the talent , but right now our team has no motivation
Only Benteke up front scares me more than Lukaku by himself. But yeah together might as well play all 10 defenders
Belgium are good, but the pressure is on them to finish first. With a bit of luck, I think Bosnia can pull away something in Belgium and I think the Belgians will struggle in front of a hostile Bosnia atmosphere, crowds they're not used to.
Why should the pressure be on Belgium? After all you're the pot 1 NT and it's a lot easier to qualify in this new format. Also are Bosnian crowds much more hostile than those of other Balkan countries ... we faced a few of them in the current Brazil2014 campaign, including Croatia (pot 1) and Serbia (pot 2) ... 0 - 3 in Belgrade and 1 - 2 in Zagreb ... actually in the past few years our guys have performed better in away matches than in Brussels.
As an experiment Wilmots has used both Benteke & Lukaku up front ... he doesn't seem convinced and will probably remain faithful to a lone CF ... and then there's the current domestic top scorer, Michy, who'll probably move to a bigger club during the next transfer window (Michy = similar level as Benteke & Lukaku when they moved to the EPL).
The Siege of Sarajevo began this week exactly twenty-two years ago and lasted until February 29, 1996. For 1,425 days, the brave and resilient residents of the capital city of Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH) endured continuous shelling and sniper attacks by the Serb forces while being forced to live without water, electricity, medicine, and with very little food. On April 6, 1992, the Serb forces of Republika Srpska and the Yugoslav People's Army besieged Sarajevo with a clear intent to destroy its multiethnic fabric and eliminate any resemblance of religious and cultural cohabitation. Sarajevo is a city where Christianity, Islam and Judaism flourished side by side for centuries, and its residents have historically lived in unity. The siege of Sarajevo - the longest siege in modern day history, not only marked the start of the war of aggression against Bosnia, but also the beginning of genocide and ethnic cleansing throughout the country. 11,541 individuals lost their lives in the siege, many of them children. The human toll from the war is astounding and devastating: over 100,000 killed, over 2 million displaced and according to the United Nations (UN), between 20,000 - 50,000 women and girls raped. This is a somber day for citizens of Bosnia and for the Bosnian diaspora across the globe, and it challenges us to remember the innocent men, women and children who lost their lives in the 1992-1995 war of aggression against Bosnia.
