This was a very painful lesson. However, we did take 6 out of 9 points this round and we are in a good place to continue to battle for qualification when we play Scotland and Moldova next month.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Denmark did as they pleased against Israel as the hosts thrashed the blue-and-white 5-0 in Copenhagen to keep their perfect record intact.
