No, we have to win by at least 2.

A win would put us both on 26 points, but Croatia won the first game 2-nil. I don't know what happens after the head to head, though. Goal difference, maybe?

        except it's done on head to head not goal difference (Other Football) - blindasabat, Nov 17, 20:44:54
        
        And the head to head would be 1 win each (n/m) (Other Football) - duke of york, Nov 17, 20:47:31
        
        Head to head is aggregate score which is why England only need a point (Other Football) - yarmyyarmy, Nov 17, 20:50:57
        
        OK, then a win vs Croatia puts us top, end of ? (n/m) (Other Football) - Steve ben Hollandman, Nov 17, 20:54:17
        
        No, we have to win by at least 2. (Other Football) - yarmyyarmy, Nov 17, 20:59:51
        
        If goal difference after head to head, a 2 nil win would see England through (Other Football) - yarmyyarmy, Nov 17, 21:02:21
        
        Which is what I said in the first place (Other Football) - Steve ben Hollandman, Nov 17, 21:04:43
        
        2-0 final by the way, meaning that we can agree a 2-goal win would put us top. (Other Football) - Steve ben Hollandman, Nov 17, 21:06:48
        
        purely academic anyway (Other Football) - Dave in France, Nov 17, 21:38:35
        
        Found the UEFA regulations (Other Football) - yarmyyarmy, Nov 17, 21:10:16
        
        (if they lose to Macedonia) (n/m) (Other Football) - Steve ben Hollandman, Nov 17, 20:54:29
        
        Correct (Other Football) - yarmyyarmy, Nov 17, 20:47:08
