World Cup 2026

Scotland 1st choice goalkeeper, Craig Gordon, was out injured, so they used Angus Gunn but he had to go off injured after 6 minutes, their 3rd choice keeper had injured himself in the warm up, the assumed next 2 choices, Liam Kelly and Zander Clarke were both unavailable through injury, so Cieran Slicker was the man to come on and play at the weekend against Iceland

Slicker is the Ipswich reserve keeper and played just 9 minutes of football this season in the FA Cup

And was made a scapegoat for the defeat to Iceland so no doubt that’s the end of his international career

If Colombia and Venezuela both win tonight then South American qualifying could be pretty interesting for the final 3 games

and South American qualifying appears to not be very interesting, with the 6 automatic spots as good as done. Only the 1 play off spot left after that. Venezuela currently sit in that place, 1 point ahead of Bolivia. Venezuela have to play Argentina and Colombia, while Bolivia have to play Colombia and Brazil. I wouldn't rule out Bolivia getting a result against Brazil and taking that play off spot as Bolivia have the altitude factor and not too many teams go to La Paz and get a result.

WTF happened to Chile. Got into the knockouts in 2010 & 2014. Haven't qualified since and are bottom of the qualifying table now with 2 wins from 16 games
