If Curaçao avoid defeat in their do-or-die match against Jamaica overnight (KO: 02:00 CET), they will be the first team from a Papiamento-speaking nation to qualify for a World Cup Finals, as well as being the smallest-ever nation to qualify (pop. 156000). 🇯🇲⚽️🇨🇼 #WCQ2026


Mere clickbait and tub-thumping hysteria from the usual suspects. I regularly hear the same sort of thing Rossi came out with, and it's a very common mistake made by many, many people all over Europe. And that is all it is.

The boss of Hungary, Marco Rossi, called the Irish players “British” ahead of our victory in Budapest “The Irish, like all the British players, they do their job on the pitch” Him after the match pictured below, makes the victory even better, what a fool 🇮🇪😂

Right, play-offs it is, then! I'll save the euphoria for if we qualify, but two miraculous performances in this international window have given me hope. Meanwhile, it's funny how the anti-Heimur brigade has suddenly fallen silent.. 🇮🇪⚽️ #ForzaBIG #COYBIG

FT | IRELAND ARE GOING TO THE PLAY-OFFS!!! YEEEESSSSS!!!!

All right, I know yer man has a clicks fetish, but let's break down his latest claim.. Netherlands - Dutch Belgium - Flemish, French and German Surinam - Sranan Tongo, Surinaams and Dutch Curaçao - Papiamento

Suriname & Curaçao both top of their qualifying group going into the fina matchday! We could seriously have 4 Dutch speaking nations in the World Cup 😳

Suddenly, Heimir Hallgrimsson is flavour of the month and a nation expects. Great result, but there's still Hungary to beat on Sunday for a shot at a play-off place. Here's hoping.. I'll be in my usual place behind the sofa.

Er..no.

Pierluigi Collina, head of Fifa's referees' committee, is considering scrapping penalty rebounds in open play. ❌ A good idea? 🤔

Methinks our correspondent needs to get out more if he's never seen anything like this in a football stadium..

Never seen anything like this in a football stadium: out of the 1600 Kairat fans who came to San Siro, at least a 1000 are women. Whenever they chant it sounds like listening to a choir #InterKairat



And there was I, thinking that football was meant to be a simple game, one that could be played under the same rules at all levels. VAR and the constant tinkering with the offside rule has put a stop to that. It's long past time for football (and IFAB) to go back to basics.

Time for an experiment. @grok, what can you tell me about the history of club football in Nicaragua?
