Group of France for Euro 2008 qualifications :

Team Pts P W D L + - Diff
1 France 25 11 8 1 2 23 3 20
2 Ecosse 24 11 8 0 3 20 10 10
3 Italie 23 10 7 2 1 17 7 10
4 Ukraine 16 10 5 1 4 16 12 4
5 G?orgie 10 11 3 1 7 16 17 -1
6 Lituanie 10 10 3 1 6 7 13 -6
7 Iles F?ro? 0 11 0 0 11 3 40 -37

The defeat of Scotland (2-0) versus Georgia is good news. The victory of France (2-0) versus Lithuania is also good news (and Thierry Henry becomes the best French scorer of all time for French team with 2 more goals => 43 goals beating Michel Platini's record of 41 goals).
1 match remaining for France and Scotland, 2 for Italy.

Remaining matches (only important ones for qualification) :
Scotland - Italy (November 17)
Ukraine - France (November 21)
Italy - Feroe Islands (November 21)

If Italy beats Scotland, the Italy and France will already be qualified, even if France and Italy loose their matches of November 21. This is the best scenario in my opinion, because match in Ukraine will be difficult enough for France without having the pressure and the obligation to win.

If there is a draw between Scotland and Italy, then Italy will have to win versus Feroe Islands (which should not be difficult) to hope to be qualified but France will have to make a draw or a win versus Ukraine to be qualified (in this case Italy won't be qualified). If Italy makes a draw versus Feroe Islands after a draw versus Scotland, then Italy will be qualified and Scotland not (same amount of points but victory of Italy versus Scotland in Italy the 28 of March 2007)

If Scotland wins versus Italy, then : Scotland is already qualified and 2nd place will be between Italy and France. Italy will have to beat Feroe Islands but it won't be sufficient if France beat Ukraine. In case France wins, whatever the result of Italy, France will be qualified and Italy not. In case Italy makes a draw versus Feroe Islands, then a draw versus Ukraine is sufficient for France. In case Italy looses versus Feroe Islands, then France will be qualified whatever the result versus Ukraine. As I can't imagine to see Italy loose it would mean that France will have to win in Ukraine. Most difficult scenario because Ukraine is always difficult to beat when playing at home.

Anyway, I still don't understand how France managed to loose twice versus Scotland while easily dominating these 2 matches. With 2 more wins France would have been already easily qualified. Shitty Scottish football with always 10 players in defence made us unable to score. It reminds me of Greek style during last Euro. Shitty style, no interest to see matches like that.

My best hope:

Scotland, Italy - in
France - out

(sorry t?ff)

Italy will easily beat Scotland and Italy and France will qualify as expected.
The only big teams in serious trouble: England, Turkey, (Denmark)

AC Milan is still suffering, they can't win in San Siro. Quite annoying performance from such a great team.

Curious weekend at Serie A. None of the home teams won! 3 draws and 7 away victories!
