I'm gonna shoot someone (possibly myself) if there's a winner in the Denmark-Sweden game and Italy don't beat Bulgaria
If Italy don't beat Bulgaria, means they are just not good enough to win Euro. Even not enough to just qualify to next round. They'd better go home and just watch the game if they get a draw or a lose.

hold on. Sweden have a plus 5 goal difference!! italy wont be able to compete with that.
They might not have to. If denmark or sweden win, then remember all Italy have to do is WIN, 1-0 2-0 66-0 it doesn't matter.

If its 0-0 all Italy have to do is win, again by any scoreline.

If its 1-1 Italy have to win by 3 clear goals or by two clear goals if they score 3-1, 4-2, 5-3 etc. However in this case a 2-0 win will probably see them through on UEFA co-efficients ruling.

If its 2-2, 3-3, 4-4 etc between the scandinavians, Italy are out, end of story.
