Same here. What game have you left? Portugal?

Yeah, away. Not a chance we'll get anything from there the way we're playing. Albania have 3 games; Portugal, Serbia and Armenia. I figure they'll need to win just one of those.
They could of course flunk it as hard as we're in the process of doing, but I'm not getting my hopes up.

Ok. Yeah, that's a tough one. Since you have 5 teams in your group, do you still get to the play-offs by placing 3rd?

Maybe you'll get through as the best 3rd placed team

Every 3rd placed team gets to the play-offs except for the best one which makes it to the Euros directly. To determine which 3rd placed team is the best, they deduct the points against 6th placed team to make it fair to the group with 5 teams.

Ah well there's that then.
I thought it was only the best X 3rd placed who'd go to the play-offs.

Used to be like that but now they increased the number of teams at the Euros.

On another note, Portugal has the best diving duo in the world. Cristiano & Nani unbeatable.
