Northern Ireland will qualify with a Czech-Turkey draw or Turkey winning by fewer than 4 goals.

I’m playing an online prediction game, I’ve got to pick the Czechs over Turkey. I do predict Spain to win over Croatia, 2-1.

Poland needs a much better effort than that to beat Switzerland.

It seems the 3rd game has seen some of these teams let their foot off the gas a bit. I could be wrong.

It's almost like England and the Poles played more not to lose than to win.

So Poland will play Switzerland, okay, that's better than some other opponents.

Without Modric, Croatia has no shot.

Maybe I’ll pick more goals for Spain. We’ll see.

Thanks, I heard some of this news.

LOL! While I enjoy watching soccer once in awhile, I have learned to NOT try to read or understand articles about soccer - except perhaps when written in the local paper about our pro team. I also stay away from articles written about computer coding.

Croatians, men of steel; I’d watch out for them if I were anyone and why did Spain look like a mountain lion vs. Turkey and here, is their tame version again.

Same ol’ Czech team lacking punch, I think Nedved definitely gave them some back in the day.

Albania needs the Czechs to score a goal to reasonably have a chance to advance now.

As Chris Berman says, “That’s why they play the game.” Croatia gets a goal to lead 2-1!!! As of now Croatia wins the group.
