The right decision by FIFA and UEFA.

I think all Italian and Portuguese soccer fans can agree that it's only fair to re-draw the groups for the FIFA World Cup playoff then...

And while I say that a bit tongue in cheek, it probably the only fair outcome.

Russia was a seeded team in the draw. Just replacing them with the next best team isn't fair IMO.

A re-draw should happen, Turkey should now be a seeded team, and another team should be added.
