Sweden - Pts 1 GD -1 GF 1
Disciplinary points 8; Uefa coefficient 29,028

The top four teams go into the second round based on this ranking.

If it's based on points Slovakia are now top with 4 points but if Portugal and Sweden win then they will jump Northern Ireland on points but the Portugal position depends on what happens with Iceland. i haven't read it properly but I'm assuming all those other categories are for tie-breakers?

Northern Ireland are through


Oh the lowest they can finish is fourth, my math is good :lol:

Yep
Albania and Turkey are the two in danger. Austria, Ireland and Sweden need a win to get in whilst a draw would most likely see Portugal through

Im lost even more now... i will just shut up...

So it'll be 16 in the second round... out of 24...

I didn't look into it properly, just shot from the hip...

You're right Wedgie, get on Northern Ireland!

So how do they work out the next rounds games? A bit messy...

Euro's have been a 16 team comp for about the last 20 years with 4 groups of 4. This year they increased the entrants to 24 so had to come up with a new format and TBH I think the format is terrible and is far from equal for all sides

Totally agree

Still England get Iceland for finishing 2nd in our group
Wales could end up playing Portugal for finishing 1st

There are way too many teams in it this year. 24 teams is ridiculous given that that's almost half of Europe. Might as well have 80 teams at the World Cup.

Italy's 'reward' for topping their group is a meeting with current champions Spain. Nice one!
On the other hand Belgium, group runners-up to Italy, get Hungary :shock:

The England/Wales group was well looked after considering the opponents they drew.

Iceland could roll them. But I'm sure the Poms would still rather face them than, say Italy or France.

How good was Shaqiri's equaliser?
Not enough to get them through, though.

18 minutes in - Wales score a goal ruled off side against Northern Ireland.

Absolute cracker! The real question is, could he do it on a wet and windy night at Stoke?

The way they have gone in major tournaments they'd would probably be happy just progressing. After all to be the best you've got to beat the best.

It was excellent but also off side
The second the Swiss number 7 moved his head out of the way of the ball he was interfering with play and therefore offside.
Unfortunately the officials are given too much discretion on the rule, probably necessitated by the stupidity of it, that they often don't fully appreciate the 'interfering with play' breech.

Still Poland went through so I suppose it's all academic
