Nonsense!  As was said, it is called the World Cup for a reason.  We've also expanded the Euro's so there's enough games between European nations.  And finally, Italy drew with Switzerland twice, with NI, and with Bulgaria at home.  This is why they didn't top their group and make it automatically, nothing to do with teams in Central America having the audacity to want to play in a World Cup!

PORTUGAL vs. ITALY IS ON!!!

Both teams drawn in the same play-off path.  Win their semis and they face each other.  Ooh this could be explosive! Big smile

Wales/Austria v Scotland/ Ukraine

Russia/Poland v Sweden/Czech Republic

Portugal/Turkey v Italy/North Macedonia.

Some potentially great ties there

Portugal v Italy?
Wales v Scotland?

Decent draw for the Welsh and Scots, they both somehow managed to avoid all of the big three. Obviously both can't now qualify but one of them likely to from this point. Austria are poor enough and Ukraine nothing special.

Why? It wouldn't have made any odds. They still needed not to lose against Serbia either way.

Great draw for Wales and Scotland. 

I wanted to see Italy and Portugal both make it so shame one of them will miss out.

what I meant was their attitude signified a belief that they were coasting to Qatar. Also happened in their away game in Belgrade. Getting to Qatar looks a tough task now, only themselves to blame.
