What would Wales get for finishing first? There are a number of benefits to finishing at the summit of the standings. Should Wales finish first, they would gain promotion into League A.
This would see them battle it out with the big guns of European international football in the next edition of the Nations League, which, when fans are able to attend matches, will likely provide a significant revenue boost to the Football Association of Wales. There's also a direct financial benefit from UEFA. Reports have stated that Wales will bank £3m if they top their group. And arguably the biggest incentive is that it would give them a better Nations League ranking.
So how does it affect qualification for the 2022 World Cup?
13 of the 32 teams that will compete at the next World Cup will be from Europe.
The 10 group winners in the traditional qualifying system will book their place at the Qatar tournament. After that, there will be three more spots up for grabs, and that's where the Nations League comes in. The 10 best group runners-up from the regular qualifying system will be joined by the best two Nations League group winners, based on their overall Nations League ranking, who did not directly qualify or reach the play-offs.
They will then be split into three separate play-off paths. There will be two single-leg semi-finals and a final in each play-off path, with the victor in each of the three paths earning a spot at the next World Cup.
Wales are currently 19th in the Nations League rankings.
What do we know about Finland ?
Finland is a country near Scotland, it has many people from Finland living there, some are over the age of twelve. Those that are are under the age of twelve are not. Finland is the happiest country in the world to live, this is based on probable fact. Sweden is a country next to Finland and then so is Russia. During the war ... Finland decided to be on the side of Germany because Russia blew up Helsinki, Russia then stole lots of land, this was very annoying to the people of Finland who decided to go fishing. Then a bit later they started fighting the Russians, the Russians got really annoyed and blew up more bits of Finland, in 1944 Finland decided being German was a bad thing and in true Italian style switched sides and went fishing again. Thirty percent of all Finland’s aggressors died in concentration camps during the war, that’s a lot of concentrating and makes them very good at being a German at the time, although they will always say they were not and we’re merely fighting Russians.
People in Finland have blonde hair, those who don’t have blonde hair are considered to be non blondes. The last time this was in discussion four people got together in a pub and none of them had blonde hair. Finland is famous for a delicacy called roll mop. This is a disgusting dead and over ripe fish based food which is dipped in a gravy based mans anus, and then kept in vinegar for a week at room temperature. Thereafter it be carried around in the anal cavity of a woman aged over seventy five years or more. It’s only then that this wonderful delicacy is ready to be eaten. Different classifications of roll mop are available, quite simply the longer the anal carrying, the higher the grade of roll mop.

Fishing is the main hobby in Finland, usually in rivers, lakes and the sea, fishing is taught in schools ...
To have a good day out at the fishing water is required, usually with fish in it, in 1978 Albert Herring came up with the idea of fishing without fish, he replaced the fish with bread. Unfortunately it didn’t catch on although breading as it became known is still practised in Tenojoki and a Finland settlement of people near Rhyl in North Wales. Perch is one fish, another is salmon. Mothers Pride is a bread, so is a Tesco.
Bjork is from Finland, as a child he ran errands for the local sweet shop manager, Trevor.
When Iceland opened a shop in Finland Bjork got very angry and screamed so loudly his penis fell off. His family got very angry as well and moved away from Finland on an old tractor they bought off Englebert Humperdink’s sister Gloria. Obviously much of this has been suppressed by Bjork’s family but we do strive very hard on Swansea Independent to bring you the absolute truth in our Matchday threads. As an aside Bjork in Scandinavia means Birch, yes, I think you can see what we did there.
This is a Bjork, as you can see he has been sick on his face
Pre match build up here - and on here of course !

Pukki was only really effective in the second half when he started playing a lot wider instead of down the middle. It is the job of the full backs to pick up wide players not the centre half. |
Went out wide? He was down the middle all game.

He ran off Joe for the goal, and his movement did Joe for when he hit the post aswell, all right down the middle, all on the highlights on above link.
No slight on Joe, quality defender, just didn't play as well as he normally does second half yesterday. |  | | |

Pukki really is lethal.Just how did Norwich keep him when we lost our better player when we went down. Norwich clearly a very well run club [Post edited 19 Nov 2020 10:44]

Joe was the one letting players run off him tonight I thought. He was quality first half but Pukki run him ragged second. |
Tbf Rodon had no wide defence support in the second half and for the gal Norrington and Morell went ball chasing and Ampadu lost interest.
An great assist and excellent run from Pukki but Ward didn't make much of an effort. [Post edited 19 Nov 2020 13:37]

There was one huge one where he cut in on Joe's blind side and Mepham just watched and threw his hands in the air after the fact instead of going with him.
Their goal came from the space opened up at left back. It's not a run Pukki could make when we were in shape (Lawrence who had just come on didn't drop in when Norrington-Davies went walkies) and it took a very good pass over Joe's head to play him in. | | | |

I think jasper noted that norrington davies was caught out of position several seconds before the ball was played. |  | | |
