Fucking England . That’s such a key point for Poland

This is what happens when you're cheering for England.

Unfortunately at this point, we have to beat both Poland and Hungary and then still need a bit of luck. Odds are massively against us.

We need to beat Poland and Hungary to go through.

Indeed Poland will be playing Hungary at home in the last game (Hungary will be out by then so they have 9 points guaranteed) while we have to face England in Wembley, Hungary away, Andora and Poland at home.

Yup, looks like it. Damn.

Exactly! Late goal of Poland had zero relevance for us, Albania had 0% chances to get second place with equal points through goal difference. In Hungary we will play with closed doors so they won't have their fans support so anything is possible.

I’m hoping we can pull off something vs England with them safely through by then , will have a lot of Albanians at Wembley (me included lol).

But first we HAVE to beat Poland and Hungary next month , huge games .

Does have relevance, every point at this stage matters. Especially England .

This is why head-to-heads are crucial. Even if we got a 2-2 draw or something against Poland, we'd be +1 point up and they'd be -2 points down.

That would have been an entirely different race.
