The last two European champions, Italy and Portugal, could face off for a spot at the 2022 World Cup in Qatar after they were drawn on Friday in the same path for the playoffs.
Italy, who won the Euros earlier this year, and 2016 European champions Portugal will play their semi-final games at home against North Macedonia and Turkey, respectively. “We already did it last time and we of course that we can do it again. It won’t be easy against the Czechs, though,” Sweden manager Janne Andersson said.
“Italy are the favourites, but we have shown in the past that we can play good football home and away.” “We can’t look back and analyze now what they did in the Euros . We need to look in depth at the way they play, but what we really need is to be prepared to those matches.”Wales, who are looking to make their first World Cup in 64 years, were drawn in the same path as Scotland, who have not qualified since 1998.
Yikes………. Forza azzurri tho 🇮🇹⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🇮🇹
It serves them right. They had 10 games to qualify, but Serbia and Switzerland beat them. They should feel lucky for second chance.
What a shameful end it'd be if ronaldo doesn't make it to the 2022 world cup even with such a strong Portuguese team.
