Greece to play Romania in World cup qualifier
Former world champions France will play Ukraine for a place in the World Cup finals in Brazil next year following the draw for the European play-offs on Monday.
Didier Deschamps, the coach of unseeded France, was desperate to avoid facing seeded Portugal who were paired with Sweden.
Iceland, who have never reached the finals of a major tournament, will meet Croatia while 2004 European champions Greece take on Romania.
The eight were the best runners-up from the nine European groups and the four qualifiers will complete Europe’s 13-team representation at the finals.
Portugal v Sweden
Ukraine v France
Greece v Romania
Iceland v Croatia
The first legs will be played on November 15 with the return legs on November 19
