Romania and Slovakia into Euro 2024 knockout stage after draw

26-Jun-2024 18:36:37 | Daily Telegraph

The conspiracy theorists can stand down. Slovakia and Romania got the draw they needed to reach the last 16, eliminating Ukraine in the process, but this was no Gijon-style carve-up. At times, especially during a frenetic, physical first half, it was closer to a tear-up.

Belgium’s goalless draw with Ukraine means that Romania top Group E and will face either Slovenia or the Netherlands in the last 16. Slovakia, who went through as one of the best third-placed teams, meet Spain or England.
