Spain's run of 24 consecutive qualifying wins was halted by France on Tuesday, while Germany spectacularly collapsed to let Sweden fight back from four goals down to draw 4-4 in the campaign to reach the 2014 World Cup.

It was also a frustrating night for Cristiano Ronaldo as his 100th Portugal appearance ended in a 1-1 draw with Northern Ireland.

England didn't even get a chance to play as a waterlogged pitch in Warsaw led to the match against Poland being postponed to this afternoon.

World and European champion Spain led through Sergio Ramos' header, but Olivier Giroud clinched a 1-1 draw for France.

Germany had been rampant against Sweden, storming 4-0 in front by the 55th minute, but Zlatan Ibrahimovic began Sweden's comeback seven minutes later.
