LONDON -- The Netherlands had a disappointing start to qualifying for the European Championship and fellow World Cup team Bosnia-Herzegovina was stunned by Cyprus in Tuesdays biggest upset. Wales narrowly avoided a similar stumble at tiny Andorra, while Italy had a comfortable victory in Antonio Contes first competitive game in charge. Here is a look at Tuesdays qualifying games around Europe: ------ GROUP A: Defender Daryl Janmaats blunder handed substitute Vaclav Pilar an injury-time winner as the Czech Republic beat the Netherlands 2-1. Janmaat attempted to head a harmless cross back to his goalkeeper Jasper Cillessen, but the ball beat him and Pilar pounced as it ricocheted off the post and into his path. "Its my mistake," Janmaat told Dutch broadcaster NOS. "I cant make it right." Midfielder Borek Dockal gave the home team the lead in the 22nd minute with a powerful left-foot shot after loose Dutch defending. Stefan de Vrij, who missed a cross in the lead-up to Dockals goal, made amends by equalizing for the Dutch in the 55th, rising to head home a Daley Blind cross after the Czech defence failed to clear a corner. In other Group A matches, Kazakhstan and Latvia played out a 0-0 draw and Iceland beat 10-man Turkey 3-0 to go top of the group on goal difference. In Reykjavik, Jon Dadi Bodvarsson scored in the 18th minute and Icelands task of defending its lead was made easier when Omer Toprak was sent off in the 59th minute for his second yellow card. Gylfi Sigurdsson doubled the lead in the 76th minute and Kolbeinn Sigthorsson completed the scoring a minute later. ------ GROUP B: Wales needed two goals from star winger Gareth Bale to avoid a massive upset against Andorra, coming from behind to win 2-1 in the tiny principality. Cyprus did manage a shock in the other Group B game, beating Bosnia-Herzegovina 2-1 after the host missed a late penalty. Wales is hoping to reach its first major tournament since 1958 after UEFA expanded the Euro 2016 field to 24 teams but got off to a poor start when Ildefons Lima put the hosts ahead with a penalty in the sixth minute. It was Andorras first goal in a competitive game in four years. But Wales fought back on a poor artificial pitch as Bale headed in a cross from Ben Davies in the 22nd minute. The Real Madrid star then scored the winner with a dipping free kick in the 81st minute. Cyprus staged a similar comeback, with Dimitris Christofi scoring twice after Bosnia took the lead through Vedad Ibisevic in the sixth minute. Christofi beat goalkeeper Asmir Begovic to a cross and headed in the equalizer just before halftime. With Bosnia pushing for a winner, Cyprus struck on the counterattack as Christofi came one-on-one with Begovic and calmly slotted in the winner to stun the fans in Zenica. Bosnia had a chance to equalize when striker Edin Dzeko was fouled in the area in the 89th, but Miralem Pjanic had his penalty saved by goalkeeper Antonis Giorgallides Belgium and Israel are also in the group, but their opening game was postponed until March because of the conflict in Gaza. ------ GROUP H: Simone Zaza scored his first international goal to help Italy beat Norway 2-0 in Oslo. Zaza, who became the first Sassuolo player to win an Italy cap last week, broke the deadlock following a mazy run with a shot from a tight angle which took a slight deflection to wrong-foot Norway goalkeeper Orjan Nyland. Strike partner Ciro Immobile was offside and in the goalkeepers line of vision, but the referee waved away Norways protests. Leonardo Bonucci doubled Italys lead shortly after the hour mark, when the Juventus defender was left unmarked at the far post and headed in a cross from substitute Manuel Pasqual. Zaza also hit the crossbar late on and had an effort cleared off the line. Elswhere in Group H, second-half goals from Luka Modric and Andrej Kramaric gave Croatia a 2-0 win over Malta, while substitute Ventsislav Hristovs late header gave Bulgaria a 2-1 victory in Azerbaijan.

Air Jordan Retro 11 Wholesale .J. -- The Houston Astros had the No.BERLIN -- Wolfsburg inflicted a 3-0 defeat on relegation-threatened Freiburg to go fifth in the Bundesliga on Sunday, while Hertha Berlin beat bottom side Eintracht Braunschweig 2-0 to consolidate seventh. Maximilian Arnold put Wolfsburg ahead in the eighth minute, when the stationary Fallou Diagne allowed him to guide Patrick Ochs cross beyond the helpless Freiburg goalkeeper, and Ivica Olic doubled the lead three minutes later after Luiz Gustavo did well to set him up. "When you start a game like that you have no chance against a team like Wolfsburg," Freiburg coach Christian Streich said. Olic should have scored again a minute later only to stumble with Freiburgs defence absent and the goal at his mercy, and the Croatian pulled another great chance narrowly wide in the 23rd. Gelson Fernandes had a goal ruled offside for Freiburg, but TV replays showed it was the wrong call. The ball came off a defender before Admir Mehmedi crossed for the Swiss midfielder. Freiburg improved after the break, though suffered a blow in the 49th when Francis Coquelin went off in considerable pain with a left ankle injury. Matthias Ginter came agonizingly close to pulling one back with over 20 minutes remaining when he could only deflect Sebastian Kerks cross over the unguarded net. "Its very annoying," Ginter said. "We had one or two chances in the second half. If we had made it 2-1 it would have been close. But the lapses in concentration cost us dearly." Marcel Schaefer sscored in injury time on a counterattack to ensure an afternoon to forget for the home supporters.dddddddddddd "The players were fully there from the first second. They saw the chance to climb to fifth place," Wolfsburg coach Dieter Hecking said. Freiburg remains in the relegation playoff place after 15 games played, three points ahead of Braunschweig, which failed to really trouble Hertha despite a spirited performance in the late game. "We dont have that luck in games," said Braunschweig coach Torsten Lieberknecht, whose side has the worst attack with just eight goals in 15 games. "Today the defeat is much more painful than the eight goals." Hertha striker Adrian Ramos scored with a diving header from Ronnys corner to open the scoring in the 20th. Braunschweig defender Deniz Dogan went close with a free kick in the 76th, before Sandro Wagner struck the crossbar with a header from another Ronny corner at the other end. Ronny set up Tolga Cigerci to seal the result from a narrow angle with 10 minutes remaining, with Braunschweig defender Timo Perthel sent off for his second yellow card after attempting to stop the counterattack with a foul on Per Ciljan Skjelbred. "Such players like Ronny and (Adrian) Ramos make the difference and you could see that today," Hertha goalkeeper Thomas Kraft said. On Saturday, league leader Bayern Munich cruised past Werder Bremen 7-0, while second-place Bayer Leverkusen won 1-0 at Borussia Dortmund. ' ' '
