Man, idk if it will happen but imagine Estonia making Euros despite having only gotten 1 point and scored 2 goals in the actual qualifiers groups. It would be hilarious, not meaning any disrespect to Wales, Poland or Finland people, after all the one point they got i think it was against Azerbaijan who then ended destroying 3-0 Sweden later on...so idk what is going to happen on Path A. Because on paper Wales should go through, or if not them, then Poland, but the fact that Finland have done quite well in their group and that Estonia with just 2 goals in the qualifier groups managed to use 1 of those to draw Azerbaijan who are capable of impressive things (as the Sweden match showed) legit Path A feels quite unpredictable.

how did Estonia qualify for the play offs? Their record in qualifying for this event is garbage. Is this some sort of charity seed?

Nope, they did well enough in Nations league to earn their place in the playoffs on that merit

I had no idea that was a thing, thank you for clearing up my confusion.

well, kind of a charity seed. Estonia won league D in the Nations League, which doesn't get its own playoff track, but in order for league D to have something to play for, the winner gets a slot if the higher leagues have empty spots. League A playoff track had empty slots, so they got the slot.

Yeah Path A is undpredictable. I would say 50/50 between Poland and Wales, Finland also have a chance... But no way that Estonia qualifies
