Euro 2012: What England must do to qualify As it stands: Pts Ukraine Sweden The Uefa rulebook states: If two or more teams are equal on points on completion of the group matches, the following criteria are applied, in the order given; to determine the rankings: a) higher number of points obtained in the matches among the teams in question; b) superior goal difference in the matches among the teams in question (if more than two teams finish equal on points); c) higher number of goals scored in the matches among the teams in question (if more than two teams finish equal on points); d) superior goal difference in all the group matches; e) higher number of goals scored in all the group matches To put that into layman's terms: teams are separated by head-to-head, which is redundant due to England's 1-1 draw with France. It then resorts to the trusted goal difference, and then goals scored. If England win: England are definitely through to the quarter finals. They will top the group if they better France's result against Sweden or beat Ukraine by two goals more than France beat Sweden. Ukraine and Sweden are out. If England draw: England definitely qualify on five points but would only finish second if France pick up a win or draw against Sweden. England would more than likely finish top if Sweden beat France - it would depend on the size of the defeat, and how many goals were scored. France could only be eliminated if they lost by more than three goals to Sweden. If England lose: England are eliminated and Roy Hodgson's knighthood is put on hold.
