FRANKFURT, Germany : Ianis Hagi has long had to live with comparisons to his father, one of Romania’s greatest ever players Gheorghe Hagi, but at the European Championship in Germany he has the chance to make a name for himself.
The Round of 16 for Euro 2024 is set, as Georgia pulled off a stunning 2-0 victory over Portugal to become the final side to qualify. Spain, England and hosts Germany have finished first in their group, as expected. However, highly-fancied France could only qualify second from Group D, with Austria taking a surprise top spot. Slovenia, Netherlands, Slovakia and Georgia qualified as the four best third-placed teams, while Hungary and Croatia bowed out. Let's look at a preview for all eight Round of 16 games:
FRANKFURT, Germany : Slovakia are relishing the prospect of taking on misfiring England in their European Championship last-16 fixture in Gelsenkirchen on Sunday, and have plenty of experience in their side to deal with the pressure of knockout football.
Wherever he looks, Kevin De Bruyne sees pressure.
Georgia secured a historic place in the knockout stages of Euro 2024 after a stunning 2-0 win over Portugal on Wednesday, while Turkey, Belgium, Romania and Slovakia all advanced to the last 16 as the group stage came to an end. Appearing at their first European Championship, Georgia had to record their first ever victory at the tournament to reach the last 16 when they played Portugal in Gelsenkirchen. Cristiano Ronaldo's Portugal had already qualified for the last 16 as Group F winners, and their coach Roberto Martinez made eight changes to his team.
STUTTGART, Germany : After a desperate start that resulted in a 3-0 loss to Romania, Ukraine got their Euro 2024 campaign back on track but it proved too little, too late as they came up just short in their final game against Belgium and were eliminated.
The Euro 2024 round of 16 table is finally complete.
Ukraine's national football team and its fans, hungry for success at Euro 2024 after more than two years of grinding war against Russia, lamented their elimination on Wednesday (Jun 27), but expressed pride nonetheless at their effort.
