Sam was well impressed that a Leeds player helped Jamaica beat the USA, is it the first time they've beaten them? Yes, it is their first ever win over the USA, which I found slightly surprising. They have a chance to do it again on Tuesday and it would put the USA in big trouble if they did. I think they will beat Jamaica, but won't win the group, they'll finish second with Jamiaca taking top spot.

Yeah, it'll be a big ask for them to win in the US, but the USA have been all over the place under Klinsmann so I wouldn't rule anything out.

Klinsmann don't seem consistent at all, it's like the team are not used to his tactics, which the 2006 Germany team were.

A comfortable win for the All Whites as they make it two out of two. They led 2-0 at half-time before the Solomons threatened a comeback but NZ soon took control of the game again. Tahiti and New Caledonia are also playing today but because Tahiti is on the other side of the International Date Line to New Zealand, it will kick off at 7am tomorrow morning, UK time, around 23 hours after the NZ-Solomons game.

Lebanon pulled off a shock, showing once again how difficult to beat they are at home, beating Iran for the first time ever. The win puts them level on points with Iran and Qatar in Group A. Uzbekistan held South Korea to a 2-2 draw, ending the Koreans' 100% record, but despite the point, the Uzbeks slip to the bottom of the table. Middlesbrough reject Lee Dong-Gook was on the scoresheet for South Korea.

Japan are well on their way to becoming the first team to qualify for the finals after seeing off Iraq. Australia's poor start to the group continued as they lost 2-1 in Jordan, who become the only team other than Japan to win a game in Group B. The result sees Jordan jump from 5th to 2nd, albeit six points behind Japan. Australia are tied for 3rd with Iraq and now find themselves in a four-way dogfight for the other automatic qualification place.

Unlucky for England with the disallowed goal, than the Ukrainians shot a blinder on goal. We had so many chances in that half, especially from Cleverley, hitting the woodwork, they need to find the net in the second half.

Well... not the best second half, at least we got a point from the match, overall it was a bit messy, bit of a blow for Gerard getting the red card in the end, but its not the end of the world since we are playing San Marino in the next round.

When is the San Marino game?, that will be a laugh. So p*ssed OFF with Wales losing 6-1 against lowly Serbia, it's like Wales are not supposed to be successful, as soon as we get the man to do it, he takes his own life . You can sit there and say "It could be worse, you could be San Marino", but that's not the point. Nice goal by the Ukranian though.

England v San Marino is October 12th. It's a shame Wales are in such a state at the mo but I wouldn't say Serbia are lowly. They were one of the better sides not at Euro 2012.

Serbia's big win over Wales takes them to the top of the group after main rivals Belgium and Croatia drew in Brussels. Scotland remain unbeaten after Kenny Miller's goal earned them a point against Macedonia.

Serbia were the only team in the top 16 UEFA ranking when the Euro 2012 draw was done, not to qualify. Poland were 26th and Ukraine justified their presence as they were 15th. Was switching between the channels to catch Wales and the England game every so often while watching the matches round my girlfriend's house, no wonder I missed the advertising boards! . Wales are in a right state and it's a sorry state of affairs, "Epic Fail" pictures don't even sum up the embarrassment. Worse defeat since 1997 losing 7-1 to the Netherlands, while the 1995 5-0 loss to Georgia comes close.

Do love that Ukraine shirt, the Paralympic 7 a side team had a nice one also. Adidas make the FIFA team's shirt and Joma make the Paralympic one.
