I have a question. German media is reporting, that in case of a three way tie with Germany, Austria and Hungary, Austria will advance to the semis. Is that really true?

 

I thought Germany would advance. Both Germany and Austria won against Hungary, and their duel was a draw. But Germany beat Hungary with a higher margin. Did I make a mistake somewhere?

The first tiebreaker causes Hungary to drop out as both Germany & Austria won (and tied each other). The tiebreaker is performed again just between Germany & Austria.

 

Not sure why Austria will automatically advance. The breaker will be through the overall goal difference which Germany currently holds the advantage and could still advance with narrow wins/losses.

No

 

they will create a table only considering results between those 3 teams and Germany will finish higher than Austria since they beat Hungary by a bigger margin

Portugal lost the lead at the end...

 

Huge opportunity for Slovenia to secure a spot at the OQT against a Denmark with nothing to play.

 

Portugal now needs to rely on other results if they want to reach the OQT. They need one of:

  1. Slovenia lose or draw against Denmark
  2. Iceland defeats Austria
  3. Sweden/Hungary/Germany to win the European Quota and Egypt to win the African Quota

So if :AUT wins or draws against :ISL they will provisionally get the second OQT spot, if they get the European quota then the second OQT spot goes to :POR.

 

:ISL needs to defeat :AUT by 15 goals and :HUN needs to lose to :FRA for them to provisionally get the second OQT spot, if not then it will go to :POR.

 

As mentioned before :SLO can still qualify to the OQT as a World Team so two of :AUT:ISL:POR can still qualify.
