Of particular interest is the ranking of the teams that can get the ticket for the round of 16 Euro as best thirds of the groups.
We remind you that in addition to the first two groups of the groups, the qualification is won by the four best third of the groups. Based on the data of this moment, having completed the first two groups, the ranking is as follows… Of these groups, only the Croatian and Hungary have completed their group games.
1. Austria 3 (3-2)
2. Slovakia 3 (2-2)
3. Hungary 3 (2-5)
4. Slovenia 2 (2-2)
5. Croatia 2 (3-6)
6. Czech Republic 1 (2-3)
However, as of today, three teams can celebrate. These are three teams that have already won 4 points and have not yet completed their obligations. These groups are England, France and Holland. All three of these teams can finish from first place in their group up to third. However, since the Hungarians and the Croatians are third with three and two points respectively, automatically and in the event that England, France and the Netherlands take third place in their groups, they will get the ticket as best third.
It’s heartbreak for Albania who exit the tournament following a 1-0 defeat to group winners Spain.
The result means England have qualified for the round of 16, at least as a best third-placed team. ????????????
