albanians clearly happy to soak up the pressure & take their chances on the counter... if only they had someone that could actually score!

albania look comfortable... need to start taking shots when they're in good attacking areas though.

Some fabulous play again by the Albanians but another chance wasted.

Most teams in this tournament find it much easier to be tightly organised defensively than score when presented with an open goal. So many good chances have been squandered. Gives the impression defences are much better than they are.

Intelligent header by Sadiku and a deserved goal for Albania.

Good timing from Romania'/s point of view, just before half time: they can spend the half time break packing their suitcases.

Never seen so many flares at a tournament at this level before - what on earth is going on?

Indeed, 3 points and a goal difference of -2 will surely not be enough to make Albania one of the best third finishers.

Deserved lead at the break for Albania.

Romania need a good old fashioned rollicking.

So how does it work with the third placed teams? Do only some go through? I take it they go on points then goal difference?

It is a farce, and a disgrace, the security team has failed big time throughout this whole tournament, they deserve a lot of flack, and questions need to be asked as to why they are not doing their jobs.

The best four of the six third finishers go through, decided by points, then goal difference, goals scored, fair play conduct in the tournament and UEFA coefficient.

Four points will realistically be enough to make a team one of the best finishers; one team with three points might go through if their goal difference is good enough.
