That’s our qualification hopes through the group gone if that score stays the same!

Turks good value for their lead. Got some really good attacking players.

We have no chance until we get a manage in place.

Maybe opens up more? Could we beat Croatia too?

We have to.

Re: Croatia v Turkey

Wales had a wonderful blip for a few years and largely due to the influence of Bale. We are simply returning to form.

Re: Croatia v Turkey

Turkey (easily the worst team in Euro 2020 two years ago) winning in Croatia shows how quickly fortunes can change in football. Our chances of qualifying in the top two weren’t great anyway, but Armenia losing in Latvia helps us a little while showing how poor we were against the Armenians - Turkey’s win offers proof that Croatia are in a partial decline, but, having won in Turkey, they seem a more effective side away from home these days, the best I can see Wales doing on Sunday is drawing.

All we’ve got to do is beat Croatia, Armenia and Turkey. No problem

Can't see us finishing 1st or 2nd. We're going to need that Nations League playoff spot to have a chance.

Remind me how that works again :facepalm:. I'm just applying for tickets for euro 2024 through the ballot. I'd do it with much more enthusiasm if I thought we had a decent chance of being there!

This is what I've been looking at

Up to 4 teams from League A (which is what we're in based on our ranking) can go into the playoffs if they don't qualify through their group. At the moment only us and Czechia would need it. Basically I think we just need to hope that the teams above us in League A qualify automatically so we get one of the playoff spots.

Great, thank you. I think I've understood that now!
