Euro 2016 Play-Offs - November 13th and 16th

Italy 11 shots on goal to Norway's 2.

Cyprus / BiH game looks a ding dong affair - could go either way.

Home venue doesn't do that much for Turkey, they happen to play better away.

:( Bosnia lead 3-2

Sky sports just said Turkey could qualify automatically if Kazakhstan beat Latvia.

yes, they and the kazakh's lead. turkey need to win their game too i think.

italy playing very lethargically... VERY.

Hungary will be seeded ahead of us if Turkey get best placed 3rd. So we don't want that.

We want it ..provided we get Hungary in the draw... poor side

italy level!

Italia goal

Talk about twists and turns

Italy scored against Norway, which will keep Croatia out of the play-offs.

italy going all out for a winner here, not leaving anyone back...

That Italian goal puts Denmark into the seeds. Need two from Cyprus for our chance. And hope 10 man Turkey don't score.

Turkey are on 16 points as it stands with a draw. They drew twice with Latvia so puts them on 14. Hungary are on 15 so will be best placed 3rd unless Turkey win. If Turkey win they have a higher coefficient than us anyway.

Italy 2-1 up.

Two draws equal two points, which he's deducted to get 14 from 16.
