The full draw, made by Henrik Larsson this morning:
Germany v France
Denmark v Serbia
Turkey v Belarus
Austria v Finland
Wales v England
Italy v Israel
Switzerland v Spain
Finland play in Pasching on the 10th of October, with the return leg in Finland to take place on the 14th. The venue has not been announced yet, but I’d be surprised if it wasn’t Finnair Stadium. I hesitate to celebrate too much, as Austria were unbeaten in their group and pretty much the same squad finished fourth in the 2007 Under 20 World Cup, but it could have been tougher.
