scenario after the second round all scenarios except do not involve a three way tiebreaker so i only explain the situation below if spain draw with republic of ireland and italy defeat republic of ireland the three teams spain republic of ireland and italy will have point each and points each and goal difference each among the three games among themselves if the spain republic of ireland match ends at a draw of or higher spain and republic of ireland will advance due to higher number of goals from games among teams in question if the draw game is goalless italy will advance with a higher number of goals among teams in question while spain and republic of ireland still tie as reapplying the tiebreaker on the game between spain and republic of ireland doesn't help spain will advance with italy with a higher overall goal difference if the draw is the tiebreaker on overall goal difference applies therefore the two teams with the best results against republic of ireland advance
