– Romania: If Romania beats Norway they finish 1st, otherwise they take 2nd .
– France: If France beats or draws against China, they will take 3rd. If they lose, they will likely slip to 4th. And in the event of a 3 way France, China and Kazakhstan a 4 goal loss would slip them to 5th place
– China: The simplest way for China to qualify is for Kazakhstan to lose to Angola. If that doesn’t happen they can still advance if they can beat France by 4 goals
– Kazakhstan: If they beat Angola they will likely get 4th place. A draw will put them in 4th place if China loses or draws against France. A loss to Angola puts them no better than 5th
