The latest international break is all wrapped up, and it looks like all of BVB’s international stars avoided injuries. There was a little more drama this international break, owing to the World Cup qualifiers wrapping up. In Europe, there are still playoffs to come, which will settle the final four teams that will be joining from UEFA, and there is also a play-off tournament between six other nations, with two further teams to come from that bracket.
The European playoff bracket (below) promises some
potentially quite exciting matchups. Italy vs Wales could be a good game, though a home nations clash between Wales and Northern Ireland could be even tastier. Republic of Ireland vs Denmark could also be pretty fun, if both sides make it through their semi-final. Nothing and no one will stop Troy Parrott.
