GROUP E
The Czech Republic and Wales go hand in hand in the group of leaders Belgium. Martinez’s national team leads with 16 points and already has one foot in Qatar, the two pursuers will play for a place in the play-offs. They are both 11 points after today’s victories: the Czech Republic beat Belarus 2-0 thanks to the former Giallorossi Shick and Hlozek; Wales of Ramsey goes to Estonia 1-0 with Moore.
GROUP G
All easy for the Netherlands against the modest Gibraltar, still zero points, while the oranges fly to 19 and put a further step towards qualification. By van Dijk, Depay (double), Dumfries, Danjuma and Malen the goals that sign the clear victory for 6-0. However, Norway did not give up, second in the group just two points away thanks to the 2-0 victory over Montenegro: it was Elyounoussi who kept Scandinavian hopes alive with two goals. Turkey also remains a glimmer (to 15 points), which manages to overturn Latvia only thanks to a penalty by Yilmaz in the 98th minute: 2-1 the final score with previous goals by Dursun and own goal by Demiral.
GROUP H
Russia smiles, taking advantage of Croatia’s misstep to hoist itself in first place alone at +2 over the Croatians: the Karpin national team slips the fourth victory in a row by clearing the practice Slovenia 2-1. Downhill game already in the first half with goals from Diveyev and Dzhikiya in the space of four minutes between 28 ‘and 32’. Then the hosts shorten thanks to Ilicic but that’s not enough. Croatia, on the other hand, brakes 2-2 at home against Slovakia and recriminates for the third goal canceled by the Var a Vlasic: it will be a super-challenge against Russia on the last day to play the World Cup in a one-off match. In the third match of the group, a useless 2-2 draw between Malta and Cyprus, who remain tied last with 5 points.
GROUP J
Germany is the first ever to qualify for the Qatar 2022 World Cup. The Germans are therefore the first to reach the host national team, qualified by right, thanks to a 4-0 victory in North Macedonia. After a difficult first half, it was Havertz who gave Flick’s team the lead, then the brace of Werner and the final network of Musiala put the mortgage on the 21 points that are worth the primacy and the pass for the World Cup. It will therefore be a brawl for second place, with the Macedonians at 12 points together with Armenia, beaten 1-0 by Romania (Mitrita’s goal) which then overtakes in turn, taking to 13. Victory also for Iceland that goes to eight points liquidating Liechtenstein 4-0 with goals from Thordarson and Gudmundsson (brace).
