I may have had a bit harsh reaction to your post, Martijn, because I found in it a conotation like "you took a goal against a team of losers...", which is not the case. Anyway, these are friendly encounters, and if you watched the game you could see that the defence was static during that unnecessary goal. They were not careful at the ed of a friendly game. Nothing to worry about that much. I think we are all looking forward to see great football at the next World Cup. Peace. Over and out. Well, I will make myself feel better in Germany.

They didnt Qualify for a reason, so stop trying to make yourself feel good about it, that you drew against a team that "almost qualified". They are not a bad team, simply not a good one. So unless YOU have something usefull to say, please go somewhere else to make yourself feel better about the draw oke? You win some and you loose some. or in this case you DRAW some. I was simply proving my point that your defence is not so strong as people say it is. Luck comes in to the picture, but you should not use that simply as an EXCUSE.

I accedently thought this was the serbian blog. My appologies. Akbar: Uruguay lost to Australia, not matter about about draws, penalty's etc. They didnt qualify. Tough luck. I saw alot of things that could be improved about the serbian team, but as all the teams that are preparing. No offence. Holland could have played alot better aswell. Once again, sorry Ade, good blog. I must apologize to you. I accedently thought this was the serbian blog. My appologies.

Besides, it was probably Serbia and M's first encounter in ages with South American football. In fact, Uruguay were pretty unlucky not to qualify. It was a close thing. Uruguay is no joke.

In fact, Uruguay were pretty unlucky not to qualify. It was a close thing.

A team that didnt qualify for the world cup, but still scores against you defence? i would start to worry." Uruguay played 3:3 and 1:1 against Brasil during the world cup qualifications. They won 1:0 against Argentina in Montevideo, and lost in Buenos Aires. So, unless you got something more intelligent to say, you shouldn't speak at all. “What about the serbian match? i heard you drew against Uruguay, 1-1 if i remember?

Emerse Fae got the equalizer for the Elephants with a beautiful goal from 30 yards. These two teams continue to intrigue and unpredictable. Germany 7 – 0 Luxembourg Germany hammering their pressure on small team to make them feeling so good about it.

It is worth noting that David Vaughan came on for Wales in the second making his international debut at 16 years of age, a record for Wales. He might play in a World Cup in my lifetime. Or not.
