Russian manager looks like he is contemplating his one-way ticket to the gulag

Well, Hamiska didn't look happy for some reason.

Good win for the Slovaks, and a deserved one. Russia looked poor and only seemed to bother once they got a goal back.

As far as I can tell the whole group is still up for grabs, northing and no places are decided.

Really pleased for Slovakia
. I think 2-1 was a fair result overall. Russia are in serious trouble, now needing a win against Wales. They'll be hoping Wales beat England so that they're playing a side already through and top. |

So third place it is going into the Welsh match, big, big pressure to win it, a draw would really not be good enough.
If Slovakia won they and Wales would have 3, England and Russia 1 each, equal on head to head, Russia with a worse goal difference. If it was a draw Wales would have 3, Russia 2, England and Slovakia on 1 each, no head 2 head yet, England with better GD. If Russsia won, they'd have 4, Wales 3, England 1 and Slovakia 0. |

Ok, I'm in full panic mode now, that draw against Russia is just looking worse and worse.
Maybe I'm being overly negative but I wonder what the odds are on England failing to make it through the group, must be worth a bet now. Right now can't see us beating Wales. You know Bale will score at least one and we couldn't score twice against Russia so how are we going to score two against a much better defence. So we'll go into the Slovakia game needing a win to go through and Hamsik and co will pick us off on the counter and send us home. |

Weren't England guaranteed to be 3rd going into that no matter today's result?

If it was a draw Wales would have 3, Russia 2, England and Slovakia on 1 each, no head 2 head yet, England with better GD. If Russsia won, they'd have 4, Wales 3, England 1 and Slovakia 0. A draw whilst wouldn't be ideal still wouldn't be game over. Just adds ALOT of pressure to the Slovakia game. Anyway I reckon we'll stuff Wales and Bale can politely **** off. |

Wouldnt we still have to beat Slovakia in the last game even with a point against Wales? BBC are saying 4 points pretty much means going through, so its best for us to win tomorrow.

![]() Somehow I cant see us winning the group at the moment, with Russia at the bottom it makes our late draw seem worse and worse imo

England will have too much for Wales. Both teams will be motivated so the stronger side will win.
