Soviet Union Beaten 1-6

Yesterday Russia slipped up against Israel throwing England a lifeline to qualify on Wednesday. I'm predicting a crushingly dull 1-1 against Croatia, just as long as they don't blow it. Noticed that the Soviet Union still have a team. They have been reduced to playing on a Sunday morning somewhere in Leinster, Ireland. They didn't do too well either by getting thumped 1-6 at home. Where can you find all this trivia you may ask? On RTE Aertel, which is Ireland's teletext service. You can view it all on the web here. Yes, I know teletext on the web is a bit weird. Check out Local Soccer Page 430. Football is a different game in Ireland.
