No I wouldnāt say so. Iād say quite the opposite
I drove between the Bosnian bit of Bosnia and the Republika Srpska a few weeks back (a few times actually) and they are so different. Both lovely with lovely people but once youāre in the Serb bit, even the road signs are in Cyrillic script. There are Serb flags everywhere. Thereās border posts but no actual border.
The Bosnia team would be seen as the team of the Bosnian Muslims. The Serbs in Bosnia would support Serbia and play for Serbia if theyāre good enough. Same with the Croats there.
The Bosnia team plays in Zenica which is heavily Muslim rather than the more mixed Sarajevo.
The Italians need to win 9-0 against Norway to snatch top spot in the group and automatic qualification. They have one of those goals after 10 minutes.
The day in November 93 will never be repeated. Some night. Windsor Park, Seville , Paris, San Marino after 7 seconds and a massive game in Switzerland too
Yeah with calm reflection, Alan McLoughlins goal is and always will be the when the significance and sheer drama about famous Ireland goals and nights are recounted.
Erling Haaland: āAt 1-1 he [Gianluca Mancini] started grabbing my buttocks, and I thought, āWhat are you doing?ā So I fired myself up a bit and said to him, āThanks a lot for the motivation, letās f*****g have it!ā Then I scored two goals, we win 4-1, so thatās great. Thanks to himā¦ā
