Yeah that seemed kinda excessive because matches have had to been postponed for various reasons before without anyone dropping any points. But of course there were probably politics involved. And I really hope so too.
Me neither. But anyway, they qualified. Though all I really care about is that Colombia did too.
Also, Portugal and France qualified.
Really happy about that (I was super nervous watching the Portugal - Switzerland match last night
).
Now 5/6 of my teams are qualified and I have faith that Italy will go through the playoffs.
