Good for you but Bosnia deserved this. Goal Austria scored was some crazy luck. And I feel Bosnians overcommited to defending, didn't even do something on counters which could have secured them the game.
Bosnia was very weak. We weren't good, but Bosnia can't play football if the ball isn't in the air. They were really bad technically and didn't deserve a World Cup.

They play like Getafe.

I believe much worse countries than Bosnia have qualified/will qualify. This is an expanded version

It's true Austria plays better but I just feel bad for how much effort they put in. You can see they wanted it with all their heart. Same against Romania on Saturday where they came back from goal deficit

This Austrian generation seems good though. Was clear in the Euros as well

Austrian perspective: Failed goalshot attempt by a bosnian turned to a perfect assist for Tabakovic for the 1:0, that was also crazy lucky. The cancelled goal by Austria was also a bit dubious by the VAR. Besides the goal Bosnia only had one single other clear chance and only wanted to defend the 1:0. After the 1:1 they were broken, nearly no danger at all from Bosnia. Austrians didn't play their best game but fought hard for the equaliser and suceeded and the bosnians were good sportsmen afterwards and applauded the team. I'm very happy that after 28 years we're finally going to the World Cup again👌🥳

With the expansion the quota allocated by FIFA to confederations was laughable when this World Cup was announced, but now it's tragedy.

Half of Europe are still battling it out in play-offs, but Curacao are there because the original 3 spots usually belonged to the hosts.:lol: Asia group runners up are there as well. But no Italy, yet.

Sepp Blatter started those politics of football to Tibet, Infantino takes it to another level. Cocksuckers.

It's ironic, more money there's in, more of a travesty it is.

Honestly, it's similar in other sports too. Handball championships practically happen every year and sometimes it's harder to drop out than qualify and then they throw in most of the teams again to knock-outs or mix into another group.
