Hi there and welcome to this Euro 2012 qualification match round up from Real Sporting news, well last night saw the culmination of the UEFA Euro 2012 qualification stage. Many of the teams involved in Tuesday’s matches were fully aware of their fates, some of the teams had already qualified where many had not. Much of the spice in these Euro 2012 matches came from the games where qualification was still achievable, the biggest challenge stood in front of Scotland.

The Euro 2012 qualification route for Scotland saw the Scots placed in a group with world championships Spain, as fate would have it Scotland met Spain in their final Euro 2012 qualification match. However Scotland’s fate was not entirely in their own hands as their result would have to better the Czech Republic’s result against Armenia. If I am totally honest this requirement was always beyond the Scots and Spain totally bossed this game from the start, the result finished with the Spaniard’s cruising to an easy 3-1 victory which saw David Silva score 2 goals whilst David Villa scored his landmark 50th goal for his country. The Scot’s rounded of their Euro 2012 campaign off with a consolation goal from David Goodwillie when he converted a penalty, all in all Scotland’s fans returned to the UK dreaming of what could of been whilst still reflecting on a much improved set of Euro 2012 qualification results.

With the Euro 2012 Qualifiers drawing to a close with the penultimate round of qualifying taking place tonight there are a host of International football results. In a night where 4 of the home nations were in action and there was a mixed bag of results.

We begin our look at tonight’s International football results by looking at England’s match against Montenegro where a point would be enough for England to qualify for the championships next summer. A point is exactly what England got in a 2-2 draw where Montenegro scored late in either half for a historic result. Ashley Young & Darren Bent scored for England in the first 35 minutes but Montenegro took over from that point and thoroughly deserved their point with Zverotic & Delibasic scoring for the home team.

The game will however be overshadowed by a Red card for England star Wayne Rooney who kicked out an an opponent when he lost possession of the ball. The red card will take effect in the Euro 2012 championships where he could miss a minimum of 1 game. Read more…
