well this leaves the Italians in a precarious position.
Lets say the Netherlands wins today and Italy beats France on Tuesday. Then all Holland has to do is intentionally lose to the Romanians and Italy and France are both eliminated. That is a scary scenario, but will require quite a few chips to fall into place.
A draw today btwn the Netherlands and France is probably Italy's best hope because then a victory against France on Tuesday and the Italians are in. (again assuming the Netherlands doesn't intentionaly throw the game against Romania, which they will,, I think if it can eliminate France and Italy)
