Holland and Germany can certify your pass as first. The rest of the groups have not been decided and we will have to wait, at least until Tuesday, to find out more teams classified mathematically
Double matchday in the qualifying matches for the Women's European Championship in England to be played in 2021. The bulk of the day will be played on Friday, although Wednesday and Thursday there were also matches. The following day will be played in its entirety next Tuesday. At stake 15 of the 16 places for the English event, with the host already classified as the organizing country. The first of each of the nine groups are classified directly, as well as the three best second. The other six seconds will have to play a tie to know the other three places. So are the options of the big ones, who can stamp their ticket this Friday.
Group A: Holland won it all
The Netherlands is the outstanding leader with full victories in their seven games played. He will face bottom Estonia on Friday at home and a victory would give him a direct pass to the Eurocup. Russia and Slovenia are fighting for second place, tied on points (12), and Kosovo (9), although with Russians and Kosovars with one game less. Russia receives Slovenia in a clash that seems vital for second place and Kosovo visits Turkey, with almost no options.
Group B: Denmark leads
Denmark is the leader after having added eight victories in the eight games played, thanks to their last win against Israel last Wednesday (4-0), but Italy also has full victories, although they have one game less. Both will face each other next Tuesday fighting for the leadership of the group and will have to meet again on the last day, back on December 1. The first and second places will be for them and surely both will be in the Eurocup because despite finishing in second position, they would be among the best. Also on Tuesday the Georgia vs Israel is played with nothing at stake.
Group C: Norway close to qualifying
Norway has a foot and a half in the England round but is not mathematically classified yet. His match against Belarus on Wednesday was postponed, so he will have to wait to certify his pass. They lead with five wins from five games, while Wales, second after today's win against the Faroe Islands (x-x), has eleven points and will have to fight Belarus for second place. Northern Ireland would also have options to be second, although very remote.
Group D: Spain and Czech Republic for the lead
It is the group of Spain, which remains first tied on points with the Czech Republic (10) but with one game less. Both meet on Friday in a momentous match in the fight for the lead. In the third position is Poland, also with a game less than Spain and on Friday they receive the weak Azerbaijan, which is bottom without knowing the victory. Fourth is Moldova, which rests this day.
Group E: The tightest group
It is one of the tightest and most open groups. Finland leads with 10 points, although with two more games than Scotland, which has two victories in its two games. Portugal, another of the favorites to be in England, has four points out of six possible and also has two games less than the Finns. The contest will be between these three teams, with Albania and Cyprus without options. On Friday the Portuguese visit the bottom Cyprus, while Scotland receives Albania.
Group F: Sweden leads
Sweden, with their victory on Thursday against Latvia (x-x) becomes the solo leader of this group ahead of Iceland, which they lead by three points although with one more match. Third is Hungary, which receives Slovakia on Friday, yes, without options to fight for second place. Slovakia also has almost impossible to finish second. Latvia closes the group with zero points in six games.
Group G: Austria and France have won it all
Austria and France add up full of victories in the matches they have played to date, although the Austrians have one more match. The finery can tie them in the standings if they beat weak North Macedonia, which has only three points, on Friday. While Serbia, which receives the bottommost Kazakhstan on Saturday, adds nine points in six games and would need to make a full session and that Austria or France do not add anything to have options to be second, something quite complicated although the Austrians will have to face each other on the last day.
Group H: Switzerland or Belgium for the square
Switzerland and Belgium compete for the first and second places in a group in which the rest of the countries have no options. Both do not play this day. The Swiss have 16 points, compared to 15 for the Belgians. Who plays on Friday is Romania, who visit Lithuania with the aim of adding a victory to improve their statistics and secure the third position. Croatia has four points and the Lithuanians zero.
Group I: Germany in full
Germany are showing themselves to be a steamroller in this group stage, having scored six wins in six games without conceding a single goal. He will not play this day and awaits a puncture from the Republic of Ireland to certify his direct classification as group leader. The Irish visit Ukraine on Friday to secure second place in the group, although the locals, if they score a win, would still have a chance of finishing second. In addition, on Thursday the inconsequential Greece-Montenegro (x-x) was played.
