In Europe this international break has seen the start of qualification for the World Cup in Qatar, late next year. It has also seen a start to on-field protests against the host nation. Players from Norway, Netherlands and Germany have all made their feelings clear by wearing t-shirts drawing attention to the abuse of human rights of migrant workers and citizens in the Gulf state.

With Graham Sibley, Jan Bilton and Terry Duffelen.
