European World Cup Play-Offs: Key Matches and Teams to Watch The European World Cup play-offs kick off on Thursday, with four spots up for grabs for this summer's tournament in the United States, Canada, and Mexico. Sixteen teams compete in one-legged semi-finals and finals, organized into four separate paths. These teams include the 12 runners-up from the World Cup qualifying groups and the four highest-ranked Nations League group winners who missed direct qualification. Wales Host Bosnia-Herzegovina Wales will face Bosnia-Herzegovina at Cardiff City Stadium. Craig Bellamy, the Wales manager, described Bosnia as a "different beast." Wales aims to reach a second consecutive World Cup but has yet to win any of their previous four encounters against Bosnia. Northern Ireland Could Face Wales Northern Ireland plays Italy in Bergamo, at Atalanta’s home ground. Manager Michael O'Neill believes this venue suits his side better than iconic stadiums like Milan’s San Siro or Rome’s Stadio Olimpico. If Northern Ireland wins, they could meet Wales in the play-off final. The team last played at a World Cup in 1986. Victory over Italy would be historic, as Northern Ireland has not beaten them since 1958. Sweden’s Star-Studded Squad Sweden, managed by Graham Potter, travels to Valencia to face Ukraine at a neutral venue due to the ongoing war in Ukraine. Despite having talented players like Alexander Isak, Viktor Gyokeres, and Anthony Elanga, Sweden risks missing out on the World Cup. The team finished last in their qualifying group but earned a play-off spot by topping their Nations League pool. Potter, who previously led Ostersunds FK to their first Swedish Cup in 2017, has yet to secure a win since taking charge. Isak is recovering from a broken leg and might return in late March or early April, according to Liverpool manager Arne Slot. Italy Faces Another World Cup Test Italy last appeared at the World Cup 12 years ago. Manager Gennaro Gattuso, a 2006 World Cup winner, now faces pressure to qualify. Italy won six of eight qualifiers but lost twice to Norway, finishing second in their group. Gattuso criticized the current system, saying top runners-up no longer advance automatically. Italian journalist James Horncastle called Italy’s previous World Cup miss “apocalyptic” and questioned how the nation would react if they fail again.
