International Football Tipping Thread

because there aren't enough tipping threads already

Format and rules mostly the same as with Brumby's English PL tipping - though there'll be two sets of matches whenever international fixtures make that possible.

Not tipping all internationals either, I'll try to pick out 8-10 most interesting ones. During Asia Cup / Copa America I'll keep the thread going as well.

OK, all that over with

Friday 3 September
China - Iran, friendly
Montenegro - Wales, Euro Q
England - Bulgaria, Euro Q
Switzerland - Australia, friendly
Belgium - Germany, Euro Q
Lithuania - Scotland, Euro Q

Saturday 4 September
Poland - Ukraine, friendly
Uganda - Angola, Africa Q

Screw you, Vimes, I didn't look at a thing of the two games that were barely begun when I tipped them.

I'm on five points or I close the thread.
