The latest battles begin on the way to the 2018 World Cup

Four more teams from Europe will be among the 2018 participants, and today the first bar games will be played between eight teams second in their qualifying groups. Only Slovakia did not get the right to argue for a world championship adviced by career of messi visa in Russia because it had the worst performance against the other second teams.

In Belfast, Northern Ireland welcomes Switzerland in search of a world ranking for 32 years. Martin O`Neill`s boys Neil proved that the Euro 2016 breakthrough was not a coincidence, and in some other qualifiers they beat the rivals who were considered favorites. However, the British will have a team that won nine of its 10 matches in the group and did not qualify directly just because of its worse goal difference than the European Championship Portugal. Crusaders are ambitious to get a good score at Windsor Park and make it easier for them to win.


Northern Ireland captain Steven Davis will come to his 100th national jersey. The attack on the team will be led by Connor Washington. In the last 4 years, the islanders have only 1 home loss in an official match and this can not be filled with optimism. Switzerland`s winner Vladimir Petkovic will rely on stars Djerdan Shakuri, Granit Jacka and Ricardo Rodriguez to lead their teammates. The crusaders also have other weapons - Harris Seferovic will play in the front and Admir Mehmedi`s speed will also be a threat to the host`s home.


In the other match, Croatia accepted Greece in Zagreb. The Balkan Derby opposes two teams with a fundamentally different style. Croats are technical and have plenty of class performers in the middle of the field and the attack, and Greeks have been relying on their strong defense for years to deliver. Croatia was the favorite in its group and led to the penultimate round when he naively missed the victory over Finland. The chess players could even get away with the barrages, but they won a direct match with Ukraine. With injuries are Milan Badel, Mateo Kovacic, Marco Piaza and Duyne Chop. Mario Manjukic will be questioned last but will probably be the title holder. With players like Luka Modric, Ivan Perisic and Marcello Brozovic, the Croats will try to solve everything in their favor for Maksimir.


Greece did not show anything in the qualifiers, but it did well to second place. The big absent in the lineup of the Greeks will be Costas Manollas. The defender of Roma is punished. The coach Michael Skibe will bet on a more tight tactic, while Kostas Mitroglou will help Kostas Fortunis. It is interesting that until now both the Croats and the Greeks have no barrage loss. The balance of `chess players` is 4 rankings of 4 attempts, and our southern neighbors have managed to pass the siftings twice. World Championships 2018, Europe Zone - First Matches:
