The pots were arranged according to this qualifying round: Pot A - The best six group winners Pot B - The four worst group winners and the two best runners-up Pot C - The six following best runners-up Pot D - The two worst runners-up and playoff winners Since, despite being the current titleholders, Portugal were the runner-up in their qualification group (behind Ukraine) and there two runners-up with better results (Netherlands and Russia), they are allocated in Pot C.

November 22, 20195 yr So if both Irelands win their respective semi finals I will have to go to Windsor park to support irelabd. I'd say UEFA refs will stop that scenario lol.
November 22, 20195 yr I liked Iceland's chances until the prospect of playing in Budapest (which is a very similar situation to the game in Elbasan, Albania a very loud passionate fanbase and Iceland melted 2-4). But I believe Bulgaria's matches will be played in a closed stadium, so I'd prefer that matchup in the final though Hungary is another team I support. Edited November 22, 20195 yr by DJHazey

April 22, 20205 yr Author Michael O'Neill has permanently left his role as Northern Ireland manager after eight years in charge.

However with Uefa proposing to reschedule the game in the autumn, the 50-year-old will now solely focus on his job as Stoke City manager. "I feel it is only fair that now is the right time for me to step aside," said O'Neill.
