Two teams qualified for next year's World Cup Finals on Tuesday.
At Turin, Italy:
Giorgio Chiellini (51') and Mario Balotelli (PK-54') each delivered a goal three minutes apart early in the second half as Italy came from behind to overtake the visiting Czech Republic 2-1 to assure themselves of finishing atop the Group B standings and locked up their 14th consecutive World Cup finals appearance (and their 18th overall).
At Andorra la Vella, Andorra:
Robin Van Persie scored twice (49', 53') as the Netherlands clinched a berth in next year's finals in Brazil with a 2-0 road win over Andorra which locked up top spot in Group D. For the Flying Dutchmen, it will be their 10th appearance overall, their third successive.
