World Cup Play Offs

Re: World Cup Play Offs

There were thousands of Peruvians in Qatar. I was quite surprised.

Or were they Qatari’s, dressed up as Peruvian’s, to make it look good to outsiders ?

Seems like extremely unsporting behaviour to me... was really wanting to see them lose that just for that.

I also thought it was quite unsporting. Their tactic was basically to win by putting the Peruvians off. I'd hate to see Wales do something like that.

Well Paddington Bear was at Buckingham Palace last week so they obviously do get about.

Would rather see the Aussies through than Peru. Don't a lot of the Oz football team play their main football in Europe, thereby making it easier for us to have a dossier on their players, and for some in the Welsh team to have come up against those in the their squad on match days? I doubt there are many of the Peru squad playing their main football in say the Bundesliga or la Liga etc.

**** No doubt I'll probably be proved wrong, by say Eric or TLG either or both, who will know exactly where every Peruvian plays his league matches****

I reckon the vast majority of Peruvians play league football in Peru.

Is there a chance Wales could end up facing Australia then?

I'm slightly surprised It's that many.

Long answer: The earliest we could possibly meet is the quarter finals, but that's if either of us finished top of our group and the other finished 2nd. If we both finished top or both finished 2nd we could only meet in the final.

Short answer: No.

there are 33 million Peruvians, so their league system would have to be enormous for that to be true
