And at the half, Israel are ahead of Russia 1-0... certainly making things in Group E very interesting...

Tough break for Scotland as they conceded Italy's winning goal in the 91st minute... poor free-kick decision by the ref...

Christian Panucci's 91st-minute header shattered Scottish hearts as world champions Italy booked their place at UEFA EURO 2008[emoji]8482[/emoji] with a 2-1 victory at arain-soaked Hampden Park.

Scottish dream dies
Panucci's goal, which restored Italy's lead after Barry Ferguson had equalised Luca Toni's early opener, also ensured France's progress to thefinals, meaning only the identity of the Group B winners is left to be decided when Italy face Faroe Islands and France visit Ukraine on Wednesday. ForScotland, though, the dream of a first major tournament appearance in a decade is dead.

Toni strikes
The hosts needed a win to secure a place in Austria and Switzerland but they made the worst possible start when Toni pounced with an emphatic near-post finishinside the second minute. From Gianluca Zambrotta's throw into the box, Antonio Di Natale collected the ball and crossed low for the big striker who,without an international goal since his double against the Scots in March, drove high into the net.

Set-piece threat
Scotland were rocking and Italy threatened to score again. Mauro Camoranesi fired over, then Toni's rising shot forced Craig Gordon into asave. Set-pieces appeared the Scots' best hope and they had Italy on the back foot with a succession of corners. After white shirts had blocked AlanHutton's header and Lee McCulloch's shot, McFadden swung another corner in and Hutton nodded a whisker wide.

Di Natale denied
At the back, though, the home defence were struggling to contain Toni and Italy nearly killed the Scots off just after the half-hour. Gordon stopped superblyfrom Massimo Ambrosini and Di Natale turned the rebound into the net only to be denied by the linesman's flag. After that reprieve Alex McLeish's mennearly stole an equaliser on the stroke of the interval, David Weir's header beating Gianluigi Buffon but not Andrea Pirlo on the goalline.

Last word
Scotland drew level on 65 minutes after Hutton's forceful run had won a free-kick on the edge of the Azzurri area. McFadden's deflected effort fell toStephen McManus and although Buffon kept his shot out, Ferguson bundled in the rebound. The home supporters sensed a famous victory when substitute KennyMiller crossed low to the far post but McFadden, a hero so often for Scotland, turned the ball wide. Instead the last word went to Italy as Panucci headedPirlo's late free-kick past Gordon.

what a shocking revelation... Israel take the lead with 2 mins of stoppage to go...
 
^ oooo... the lovely Kate Beckinsale...

England still need to, at least, draw Croatia... not outta the woods just yet...
 
At least its now in their hands, no matter how slippery they may be. Im hoping we put out the right squad, agreed it can still go down the toilet though.

As for Kate Beckinsale, no words are needed.
 
wow, and now Macedonia takes the lead over Croatia? this Group E is getting wackier by the minute...
 
After just seeing the Italy Scotland game, WOW that Italy free kick decision was criminal.
 
WHAT?!?!

NO ONE IS HAPPY THAT.........

THE TURKS WON!!!!!


I don't think ANYBODY knows how happy I am. We now pretty much have the #2 spot on lock. If we had lost, we would've been eliminated. YES!!!
