Denmark made it to the second round of Euro 2004 yesterday by tying Sweden 2-2. Italy beat Bulgaria 2-1, leaving all but the Bulgarians with 5 points. Italy finished third based on goal differential and get to go home, the most surprising non-qualifier yet (Spain doesn't count, as their m.o. pretty much requires an early exit). For their troubles, the Danes will get to play the Czechs, who have already won group D.
Speaking of which, Latvia can move on if they beat the Netherlands and Germany fails to beat the Czechs. It's not as unlikely as it sounds, but it'd be pretty surprising if it happened.
