Shane' date=' TV5 Monde Asia will be showing the France v. IRL match live in few minutes.:two_thumbs_up:[/quote'] Thanx Sri, Eurosport and Sopcast for me. :D

[Chalks]

New Zealand have qualified after beating Bahrain 1-0 over two legs in the AFC/OFC play-off. Choice, bro. :two_thumbs_up: :sheep:

[Don Sharma]

This is it! The final leg of WC qualifiers playoffs is played later tonite. This is the fixture: UKR (0) v. Greece (0) Bosnia (0) v. Portugal (1) Slovenia (1) v. Russia (2) France (1) v. IRL (0) Uruguay (1) v. Costa Rica (0) The Bosnia and Slovenia games should be fun. I expect the rest of the home teams to sail through to the WC finals.

[Guest Hiten.]

Robbie keane is confident of an upset in Paris tonight. Lots of heat has been exchanged between the les blues and Irish drunkards. Should be fun

[Sooda]

Greece beating Ukr

[Guest Hiten.]

Holy mother. Keane scored for Ireland :|

[Don Sharma]

Go Ireland go. :yay: Scores elsewhere Slovenia leading Russia 1-0 in second leg. (2-2) Bilyaletdinov and Zhirkov have been booked already. Algeria beats African champs Egypt to qualify for the finals. Bosnia - Portugal on goalless draw (HT).

[Sooda]

Fan-fraking-tastic Itll be a shame to not see the Likes of Anelka and Ribery next WC. But arrogant French not there- YES PLEASE Meanwhile Russia on their way out too it seems.

[ludhianvi]

Is France out if Ireland wins tonight?

[Don Sharma]

Any team that Henry plays for (except Barca) I hate. Oh, hai there Shane.:D TBH IRL are playing fantastic football especially in the midfield. They are closing down the flanks as well...it has been a great half so far. I hope they sustain the full 90 minutes coz the bench strength isn't great. brb...after the match.

[Don Sharma]

Is France out if Ireland wins tonight?

Nope. Irish have to score another goal. If the score is as it stands at the end of the match then we go into ET and then penalties.

[Guest Hiten.]

Is France out if Ireland wins tonight?

Yup.

[Sooda]

Itll be 1-1 , so Xtra time and penos right?

[Guest Hiten.]

Itll be 1-1 ' date=' so Xtra time and penos right?[/quote'] Yeah. Russia could not qualify, meaning no Ashravin in WC :(( Slo, Portugal and Greece go through.

[Don Sharma]

Great game! Praying for an Irish win.

[Sooda]

France equalise Cheatings SOBs. Handball by Henry, apparently its a shocker from the the ref

[Sooda]

2211: EVEN BIGGER CONTROVERSY. This is quite unbelievable. Long ball over the top - and two French players are offside - but forget that, Thierry Henry juggles the ball CLEARLY with his hand before squaring for William Gallas to bundle in. The Republic of Ireland have been robbed here. Robbed.

[Don Sharma]

The French hand ball team would have been proud of that. Very bad to see Damien Duff in tears at the end of the match. He played his heart out. He deserved to go to SA what would have been his final world cup. All in all the Irish played a hella game.

[Guest Hiten.]

Wow. Absolute shocker that handball was not given, blatant cheating and desperate measures to avoid the upset on the cards. Disappointing stuff for the Irish but they can take a heart out of this draw as they gave their best :((

[Sachinism]

unbelievable Henry **** you
