Early on in the process, so these results don't mean that much, but a couple interesting finals.
Portugal (sans Ronaldo) lost at home to Albania 1-0. Great strike by the Albanian forward on the goal and Portugal was a bit unlucky clanging the crossbar at one point. Portugal supporters booed (or whistled) the team off the field waving white handkerchiefs.
Northern Ireland with a late goal to surprise Hungary 2-1
Scotland gave Germany a decent game, losing 2-1, but I don't suspect Germany was going full bore. They don't have to worry about qualifying.
Gibraltar - a piece of rock with 30,000 people that is now fielding it's own team made up mostly of travel agents - lost to Poland 7-0. It was only 1-0 at the half. The roof caved in.
