Without Lithuania's match with Scotland on Wednesday, 20 more matches took place in the 2008 European Championship qualifiers. The biggest sensation came from Northern Ireland, who defeated Spain at home after three goals from David Healy, unexpectedly dropping points with Finland. Meanwhile, Portugal lost points unexpectedly and France convincingly won the replay of the World Cup final. The Germans had fun scoring goals and improving the qualifying record.
