Whatever one defines the Balkans as, they have had a lot of great teams and a lot of great players.

Romania, Greece, the proper Former Republic of Yugoslavia.

A lot of good teams.

Israel 0 3 Wales.

What a great game by Wales, Aaron Ramsey, 1 goal, Gareth Bale, 2 goals. In spite of the area of the world, soccer in Israel is often a great spectacle, the pageantry before such a game.

This win by Wales, DFWgator puts Wales on top, Belgium are in the group too and before today, had played only 3 games, Israel will continue to be a factor despite this loss.

See group B: http://uk.soccerway.com/international/europe/european-championship-qualification/2016-france/qualifying-round/r24218/ Top 2 teams automatically qualify for the next Euro in France, which is why France is not in the qualifying. I think I have all of this correct.

Tomorrow, Poland at Ireland, the new minnow Gibraltar at Scotland. Some other good fixtures on tap as well.
