I think Danmark is going to win this. They were strong, had several chances and have a good starting position when they'll receive the yellow blues.
 
Tonight Norway have to do something really unusual to qualify. Few teams win away in Euro/World Cup play-offs, and until now no European team have qualified after first losing at home.

But if we succeed ... dancing in the streets, singing in the rain and a rather inefficient workforce tomorrow.

If that happens it will be our first since 2000, remeber how much bad was said about that team? A team that beat Spain, from little Norway. Yet media and people where not very satisfyed.
 
Well, we were quite shit in the final two games we played in that tournament. We set out to defend 0-0 against Slovenia ffs ... a team we had beat 2-1 and 4-0 in the qualifiers.
 
Yeah, but atleast we got there. We been even more shit for the last 15 years.

And why are we using Henriksen as a striker? We need goals so we put a weak midfielder on top who we try to put crosses on? Am i missing something here?
 
The Norwegian TV pundits call it "boys against men". I partially agree - our attackers did seem like boys against the men of the Hungarian defense. We had a lot of possession, but didn't create much at all.

And I'm not going to France next summer :(
 
Thats that! I doubt we reach WC so atleast another 4 year without a tournament. Im pretty sure Per knows more about footy than me, but still that team he started with was wierd.

With Germany and Czech Rep in our group we're not likely to reach the 2018 WC, no ... still, in 1992, we were considered weaker than Netherlands, England, Poland and Turkey, but won the group. And this Hungarian team just qualified for the Euros. So ... everything's possible.
