I cheer for the underdog and a good game.
A team full of “semi-professionals” playing in “the depths of Europe” just eliminated EURO champions in Palermo.
Italy (6th ranked) won with the help of the Video Adjusting Results system last summer, and I have now witnessed payback for it!

That’s the level of luck we’re talking , how often do guys like Berardi miss those chances ?
That's not a coincidence. We would never win a game like they won today.
We have since then not won a single point vs any top team, a single point.
In fact, don't think we've even scored a goal against a top team in a competitive fixture in 8 years. Lol

Cika shenoi me penallti ndaj Frances ne minuten e fundit ne 2019. Garbage goal in garbage time. One of the worst performances ever. Only the one in Wembley was worse.RedFootballs wrote: ↑Fri Mar 25, 2022 5:26 pmThat was 8 years ago.

Honestly pathetic. We haven't put in even a good performance against a big team since Portugal, let alone win any points.Plako wrote: ↑Fri Mar 25, 2022 6:01 pmCika shenoi me penallti ndaj Frances ne minuten e fundit ne 2019.

Meanwhile Macedonia are always scoring even if they lose. It would be nice to see us score a couple goals against Spain even if we lose rather than the standard 2-0 with 20% possession.

Alexander “The Great” Trajkovski scored one of the best goals I have seen with my eyes last night.
Valued only at €350k, it is not the first time this “semi-professional” scrub from the Saudi Arabian league has ripped the net of Italy in their house. He tied the match 1-1 back in 2017 WCQ, taking a point home to Macedonia.
Alex shows up when it matters!

Macedonia have been competitive against top teams for a while now and did very well against Italy in the same WCQ group we were in.

That's a former Serie A player with a lot of games for Palermo. It's like Pandev. Too old to do it consistently but the individual quality can strike at any moment.
If he was a career Saudi Arabia player he wouldn't do shit.

He's spent most his career playing the Belgium, Italian and Spanish leagues.

Exactly. Someone with that kind of experience is not an amateur. He might not have the legs or the mental tangibles to do it often but the talent and experience is still there.
