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.
