What a shock! The European champion – Italy, which was defeated by Northern Macedonia in the semifinals of the qualifying round for Qatar – experienced an incredible crash – 1: 0!
Almost everyone saw the finals between Portugal and Italy, but the Macedonians delighted the world public again and came from an almost impossible position just a step away from the historic placement in the World Cup!
But what did Italy miss tonight ?! Robert Mancini’s players had as many as 32 shots towards the rival’s goal and somehow they managed to lose the game ?!
True, only five shots went into the goal of Northern Macedonia, which scored two shots in the goal, which is worth their gold.
The hero of the entire nation of our southern neighbors is Aleksandar Trajkovski, who decided that there will be no overtime and with a goal in the 92nd minute brought the guests to Palermo in a state of delirium, while the whole of Italy is mourning!
And while the Italians are mourning, the Portuguese are happy because they got a far more favorable rival. Fernando Santos’ selection was not an easy task, but Turkey somehow fell – 3: 1!
Everything would have been different if Burak Yilmaz had used the penalty in the 85th minute with the result 2: 1, but the attacker Lila missed and the “sailors” confirmed the victory with a goal by Nunez.
Previously, Ottavio had a central role. The fantastic wing first scored the goal for the lead in the 15th minute, and in the 42nd minute they assisted Diogo Jotti.
It turned out that the Turks reached the only goal through Yilmaz in the 65th minute, which in the end turned out to be the tragedy of the match…
He is constantly injured at Real Madrid (intentionally or not, it is a big question), but for Wales he plays like in a trance. Gareth Bale brought victory over Austria with two goals tonight – 2: 1!
The real mastery was the first goal off of the fast wing, which outscored the goalkeeper of Austria from a free-kick, sending the ball to the place where the tripod and the bar meet.
In the 51st minute, Bale increased the lead of the Welsh, and Ben Davis returned the hope to the Austrians with an own goal. However, in the end, nothing from the turnaround of David Alaba and society…
The last match of the barrage brought us overtime, and in the end, the Swedes were better than the Czechs with 1: 0! The hero of the victory was the reserve Robin Quisson, who in the 110th minute took the “three crowns” selection one step away from Qatar.
Now we know almost all the finalists of the barrage. The first pair are Portugal – Northern Macedonia. Poland and Sweden are also meeting, while Wales is waiting for the winner of the duel between Ukraine and Scotland in June.
