I heard something funny concerning tonight's crunch Group C match between France and Italy. Though it's already been refuted by UEFA.

Let's have a look at the Group C table between France and Italy:

France W0 D1 L1 GS1 GA4 Pts2
Italy W0 D1 L1 GS1 GA4 Pts2

So if both teams draw, their points and goal difference will be identical. You follow me here?

OK, here comes the funny bit:

We all know should Van Basten decides to rest his side and let Romania win, then both World Cup finalists will be out no matter the result between them.

And if both end up drawing in such a scenario after 90 minutes they will go to penalties to decide who gets 3rd place.

LOL! What?

I can understand Group A's PK scenario between the Czech Republic and Turkey, but who wants to participate in a PK when both are out?
