Even with the many problems they faced, the National Amputee Football Team managed to achieve two wins in six matches and occupy the 14th place in the final ranking of Euro 2024 in Evian, in which a total of 16 teams participated.
The representative group could achieve even more victories if luck was on its side in the matches against Azerbaijan (lost in the last minute of extra time) and Israel (lost on two penalties).
Our representative group overcame the obstacle of Scotland (2-1), while they also prevailed 3-0 against Germany, in a mission that was initially difficult but can nevertheless be described as successful, given the problems that arose before the start of the competition .
It should be noted that this was the third consecutive participation of our representative group in EURO.
