Some result for Kosovo that!

The Kosovo result was a bit surprising, though personally I have the two nations ranked pretty closely just Sweden has the pedigree.

The Israel/Italy was wild, with the lead changing multiple times, Italy having two own goals, Israel tying it in the 89th and Italy winning it in stoppage time. I will say Moise Kean looks like the new Balotelli for Italy. I won't be surprised if you all see his name come up for the next big transfer window from Fiorentina.

If Italy hadn't got a result yesterday they'd have probably screwed up qualifying yet again.

True, but they've already lost to Norway once 3-0, so they're already behind the 8-ball as it is.

Horrible result for Ireland tonight, Duff for president!!!

Milenkovic sent off for Serbia.

Bit of a random red there, from bad to worse for Serbia.

Guehi makes it four for England, 4-0.

Haaland has his fifth goal tonight and Norway have 10 against Moldova.

Rashford, 5-0 England.
