World Cup Qualifying - 2018 Russia

Iceland on brink of beating Ukraine and moving into either sole possession of second or a tie for first in its group. Croatia would have tiebreaker on goal differential, but Iceland might have an easier finish that includes group bottom feeder Kosovo.

Everything has drastically changed since this post.

Iceland up 2-0.
Croatia down 1-0.
 
Yesterday, South Korea and Saudi Arabia became the 7th and 8th teams to qualify for the finals.

Teams eliminated yesterday: UAE, Congo, China, Uzbekistan, Georgia, Israel, Algeria, and Trinidad & Tobago.

Next round of games are a month from now, including the playoff between Syria and Australia to determine who will have the playoff with the 4th place team from CONCACAF.
