More weirdness from the Scotland game, a Liechtenstein player has received two yellows and has not been sent off.
And Scotland have scored, winning the game, 6 mins into Injury time.

I caught the last 15 mins of this game and it was really tense. I am not even Scottish but having worked in Aberdeen for a year and going to Euro 92 to watch Scotland with some Scottish fans, I always want them to do well.
I really thought it was going to kick off - couple of really bad tackles by the Liechtenstein players. I'm sure I saw one of the Scottish players suggest to an opponent that he would see him outside, lol.

In all honesty though, qualifying for the Euros is not really the issue, no one expects England not to qualify - it's how England perform in the actual tournament that's the issue.
If Capello can't reach the quarters (at least) of that tournament then does he deserve to be around for the next world cup?
