and it italy-france is 0-0, and holland-romania 3-0 to the dutch, anyone knows what happens then as by my reckoning the italians and romanians would have identical results. would they have to quickly meet up for a penalty shoot out or would it be the flip of a coin..?
Apparently, everything is explained here & being myself French but from Italian origin (my parents were both born in Italy...) I'll have a dinner with friends somewhere & I won't even watch the match... just to avoid any schizophrenic emotions

Anyway... after what I've seen before, imo France and Italy don't deserve to qualify...
