KEY POINTS:
World champions Italy face a tough task if they are to add the European soccer title to their world crown after being grouped with the Netherlands, France and Romania in the finals of Euro 2008.
Yesterday's draw was not kind to the co-hosts either, with Switzerland facing the Czech Republic, Portugal and Turkey in their group and Austria meeting Croatia, Germany and Poland.
Holders Greece kick off the defence of their title against Sweden and also face Spain and Russia.
Switzerland open the tournament against the Czechs in Basel on June 7 with the final in Vienna on June 29.
Italy, who beat France on penalties to win the World Cup final in Berlin last year and also faced France in the qualifying competition, will meet them again in their last Group C match in Zurich on June 17.
