With Portugal as the absolute dominator of Group J, with two days left in the qualifying phase, only one spot is up for grabs. Slovakia started as favorites to win it and the predictions came true.
First, they had to beat Iceland, whose hopes of playing in Germany next summer are still a long way off. However, he disappeared within ninety minutes despite the fact that he stood up to his rival in the first half. They went ahead with a goal from Oskarsson after quarter of an hour, but Kucka and Duda, from the penalty spot, leveled the scores before the break.
Then, with Haraslin’s victory after passing through the locker room, Iceland’s resistance collapsed and Haraslin himself, with a great shot from outside the area, sealed the match with a score of 4-1 which was later done by Gudjohnsen on the exit of a corner.
The final 4-2 made Luxembourg’s victory pointless. Slovakia reached 19 points and Luxembourg reached 14 after passing Bosnia-Herzegovina. Olesen, Rodrigues on two occasions and Mujakic, with an own goal, sealed another victory, the fourth, in an excellent qualifying phase in which the Luxembourg team did not get a prize ticket for the Euro Cup
