Matches

A meeting was held in Zürich, Switzerland, on 15 March to determine the Group G fixture schedule.[2][3] After that meeting proved inconclusive, the fixture list was determined by what Sepp Blatter described as "a random draw at the XXXIV Ordinary UEFA Congress in Tel Aviv, Israel, on 25 March 2010".[4]
