[TheDeli]

Spain demolished Slovakia 5-1 in their 1st leg qualifier, with Liverpool's Luis Garcia getting a hat trick on his full Spain debut, Fernando Torres scored with a penalty and Fernando Morientes completed the scoring for Spain, Szilard Nemeth of Middlesbrough scored for Slovakia

Other scores were:

Europe

Norway          0 - 1   Czech Republic (Vladimir Smicer)
Switzerland   2 - 0   Turkey            (Philippe Senderos & Valon Behrami)

South America/Ocenia

Uruguay         1 - 0   Australia           (Dario Rodriguez)

Concaff/Asia

Trinidad & Tobago (Chris Birchall)        1 - 1    Bahrain  ( Salman Husein)


Looks like only Spain could count on being in Germany 2006 from the scores from the 1st leg qualifiers, the return legs are scheduled for Tuesday/Wednesday

Did anyone see that state of Norways pitch?? It was a disgrace they shouldnt have been allowed 2 play on it, it was more like a beach than a football pitch.

Not only a disgrace, it's a fucking scandal!
The pitch was used to cup finals for both men & women 1 week ago in pouring rain, turned into a mud fight.

Fucking Eastside Football Federation morons insisting on playing in Oslo, mo matter the cost, even if there's a dozen better options.

Don't think so. We are not on the same level as the strongest teams. Don't get confused by that 5-1, it was more of Slovakia being a really bad team than Spain being strong.
