    1-0 at halftime courtesy of an own goal by Macedonia. We really look pretty dire out there. I'd say half of the players starting today should be bench players at best.

    The good news is that we kept the same GD +7 goal lead over Italy.

    Agreed. The first 2 goals we luckyish and Silva would not shoot if they had a gun to his head.

    I don't think gd will be the decider though, our home game against them will probably be decisive.
