Italy attack not putting anything together. Italy on the road to the playoff at this rate

If Swiss score again even 1-0 Italy won’t be good enough

Switzerland one more goal away from Italy needing to win 2-0.

Obviously they'd be favored in a playoff, but it would be catastrophic if Italy somehow misses out on two straight World Cups.

I’m watching Italy and following Swiss on my phone

I guess there was an offside or something but Gavrinovic briefly had a goal

Let's be honest Italy will qualify through the playoff.

Also, can anyone tell me why Albania/Andorra of all matches was the one on ESPN3 today? All others require ESPN+.

I have a friend's credentials but it's a pain because I have my dad's for regular ESPN and switching between them constantly sucks to the point I just don't do it.

Yeah, but ain't nothing given there. You have to win a mini bracket against two different teams and they can't score all of a sudden again. They don't have the home and away format anymore

They changed the qualification for the playoff this time. There are 3 paths this year in which you have to win a mini tournament style bracket. Last cup it was a home and way aggregate against one opponent.

Who are the three favorites for the UEFA spots?

With the win today it looks like GOATland is a seeded team and gets home field advantage for their semi final game. Apparently the finals are determined by a draw, which seems harsh when it’s a one off.

Proud of the lads. Only 1 L in qualifying (denmark away)



Was only hoping for a playoff spot so to do it in this fashion is impressive
