good win mate
it shows a good draw is half the job done.
Despite to what other people are thinking, it will be a very hard feat to qualify for the next round. It is funny to see what 2 wins against minnows can do. Looking at the ratings for Belgium, Germany and Sakartvelo, which are very similar to ours, it will all come down to managing enthusiasm and perhaps even baskets for and against.
You are right, of course, but so far things are going well. We didn't have any "accidents". It's good to be positive as long as you can :)
Obviously to get through we need, at the very least to win 3 more games, 4 to be sure... Starting with Cyprus, our next opponent. They gave away the match against DK and they *really* need to win against us. They won against Belgium, so they can pull it off as well...
Let's see how that goes!
It's interesting to see that despite the last two wins we dropped to the 41th team in the rankings. Givent he algorithm they use, it looks like they "expected" us to win those matches...
