Germany became the first team to qualify for the Euro 2008 finals despite 0-0 draw in their Group D match against Ireland at Croke Park on Saturday.

The point was enough to secure the visitors their place with three games to spare.

Scotland made things a lot tougher for both Italy and France to follow.

Scotland beat Ukraine 3-1 to retain first place in Group B and increase the likelihood that one of the two World Cup finalists will be missing from next year’s tournament in Austria and Switzerland.

France defeated the Faeroe Islands 6-0, but the team is still two points behind Scotland, which has 24 points. World champion Italy has 23 points after beating Georgia 2-0.

England, Spain, Portugal, Sweden and defending champion Greece also won Saturday, while the Netherlands got beaten at Romania.
