This will be the last I speak of this shit international break for our beloved Vatreni. As I said on the podcast, I am “stone cold lead pipe locking” that Wales will not win their final two matches of Euro 2024 qualifying next month versus Armenia (on the road) and at home against Turkey.
Armenia’s Euro 2024 hopes are more than alive and a win versus Wales on home soil will put them level on points going into the last qualifier against Croatia on November 21st. On top of that, Armenia already hold the tiebreaker against Wales, defeating them 4-2 in Cardiff in June. This will be an extremely tough match for the Welsh. Mark my words. Croatia escaped Armenia by a score of 1-0 and Turkey had trouble in Yerevan during their first qualifying match; needing two 2nd half goals to secure a 2-1 victory.
Even if the Welsh do figure out a way to grab all three points in Armenia, they will face Turkey three days later. Although Turkey have already secured a Euro 2024 berth, this last qualifier for them will determine which pot they enter for the Euro draw in December. A win can put Turkey in Pot 1 amongst the best qualified European nations; which include France, England, Spain, and Portugal at this time. Germany will also be placed in Pot 1 as Euro 2024 hosts. That means Turkey should not be expected to roll over in this match against Wales. Turkey have already beaten Wales 2-0 in June.
With that logic of Wales not earning all six points in November, that would mean Croatia would qualify automatically for Euro 2024 with wins over Latvia and Armenia. And if you can’t beat Latvia away and Armenia in Zagreb with a tournament berth on the line, well…that’s another conversation we will need to have when the time comes.
Again, no chance Wales grabs all 6 points next month. That’s all I got for you. Have a nice weekend! 🙂
“PSA: Wales Will Not Pick Up 6 Points In November”
I mean, the issue is we prolly won’t either.
Yes let’s move on😂😂😂
