Every UEFA qualification for the world cup since 1994 has had playoffs for the second placing teams. 2006 allowed the two second placed teams with the most points direct qualification, but the rule for world cups and European countries is that you have to either win your group or the playoff. Normally the playoff has been a simple best of 2 against one other team though - not 12 teams fighting over 3 spots. I guess the nations league is the main reason why this has changed.

Italy might actually miss out on two world cups in a row. (They lost the playoffs against Sweden in 2018.)

Were the groups smaller than before or something then? Weird i just don't think i seen a Italy Portugal type stuff before but maybe they just both paid the price for a very hectic covid effected qualifying (which everyone had i know)

They must have used 20 years worth of WC luck all in 2006 haha.
And yea, playoff in Europe used to be eight best 2nd place (out of nine) fighting for 4 spots, but now it's all 2nd place (which is ten) and 2 teams from nations league fighting for 3 spots.
For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?

Gonna go with Austria, Sweden and Portugal. (Portugal or Italy is a complete tossup for me though. But I just kinda imagine Ronaldo making some magic happen in the 92nd minute or whatever.)

I mean wow xD

Both had the same chance to qualify via the standard groups. It's not these countries fault they are as bad as them

Except Portugal got fucked with bad ref decisions

Sure sure, and there wasn't ever a moment in the history of Portugese football the bad decision would helped them, right? I mean it kinda balances the shit out and again, should have advanced directly if they're so good.
I imagine France should be able to take this unless Lilbow is busy practicing for Starcraft III. | KadaverBB is my fairy ban mother.

Sure. Similar thing though - some of those guys will need to learn a lot. Are they up for it?

one of the portuguese first league games today started with 11 vs 9 (2 of them being GKs, most of them from the u23 squad) because one of the teams has most of the squad down with covid.

brain dead management decided they didnt need a reschedule (rules are sketchy in that regard) and the league decided they didnt care about it.

you can imagine how the game is going....

And it was a joke between player and ref whennthe game was over (and the player had scored the GWG) and half the world cries about how this player should be shot by a flak cannon for his crimes.

I appreciate the deadpan style of the joke, where neither the player nor the ref were smiling or laughing and they even went to the extreme lengths of having the player look like he is genuinely complaining at the ref as he is standing up.
That's committing to your routine.
