Now that International Week is Over…

By: Inara | September 13th, 2007

Kim Kallstrom came on as a second half sub in Sweden’s 0-0 draw with Denmark. Despite the draw, Sweden top Group F with a three point lead. They also played in a friendly against Montenegro.

Milan Baros missed the game against San Marino due to back pain but started against Ireland. The Czech Republic is in second place in Group D.

Kader Keita started in the Ivory Coast’s game against Gabon. Ivory Coast got the point they needed to top the group and qualify for CAN 2008.

Algeria lost to Gambia (2-1), which means that Nadir Belhadj & Co. won’t make it to CAN 2008.

Of the four Lyonnais called up by Domenech, only Jeremy Toulalan featured in the game against Italy, when he came on in the last five minutes. Against Scotland, Karim Benzema came on with thirteen minutes left to go. Francois Clerc and Sidney Govou did not play. France are third in Group B.

Fabio Grosso did not play against France or against Ukraine. Italy are second in Group B.

Italy - France (0-0)
France - Scotland (0-1)
Ukraine - Italy (1-2)
Gambia - Algeria (2-1)
Ivory Coast - Gabon (0-0)
Czech Republic - San Marino (3-0)
Czech Republic - Ireland (1-0)
Denmark - Sweden (0-0)
Montenegro - Sweden (1-2)

  Källström also started against Macedonia, but was subbed for Linderoth (When? No idea. It’s about as hard to come up with info for Sweden’s game against Macedonia as to get some about Cameroon’s game against Equatorial Guinea).

  At least we’re back to L1 now!

  International friendlies are covered pretty poorly, even the high profile ones, like yesterday’s Brazil vs. Mexico. It’s a shame, because friendlies can be intense sometimes.

  I watched the Brazil/Mexico friendly. You didn’t miss much except a lot of hot girls.

  I was actually at the game. It was so cold, and yet some of the women there were practically naked.

  I hope Brazil appreciate all their fans.
