England continue to disappoint on the final day of the group stage

Closing the final matches of groups C and D, EURO 2024 has officially determined the 11 teams that have qualified to play in the round of 16.

The "life and death" match of Group C ended disappointingly without any goals scored.

At RheinEnergieSTADION, the England team is expected to play with great enthusiasm to have the best preparation before entering the knockout round.

However, Harry Kane and his teammates continued to play deadlocked. They controlled more of the ball, had more shots but could not score even once against Slovenia.

Meanwhile, the match at the same time between Denmark and Serbia at Allianz Arena also ended in a goalless draw.

With this result, the ranking of Group C remains unchanged compared to before the teams entered the final round of the group stage.

England have five points after three matches, scoring exactly two goals, winning first place in Group C and will avoid the "death" bracket.

Meanwhile, Denmark (3 points) only won second place in the group and will face host Germany in the next round.

Slovenia have the same 3 points as Denmark but have a worse goal difference, so they can only advance as one of the 4 best third-placed teams.

In Group D, a big surprise happened when the Austrian team had a dramatic 3-2 victory over the Netherlands in the final match.

Austria twice took the lead through a Donyell Malen own goal and a Romano Schmid strike, but the Netherlands fought back to equalise twice through Cody Gakpo and Memphis Depay.

However, Marcel Sabitzer shone right on to score the decisive goal to help the Austrian team win 3-2.

Also in this series, France, despite being rated higher, only managed a 1-1 draw against Poland, a team that was eliminated early.

Kylian Mbappe opened the scoring for France with a goal from the 11m penalty spot, but immediately after that, from the same distance, Robert Lewandowski did not miss the opportunity to score to help Poland leave the tournament with 1 point.

This result helped the Austrian team surprise everyone by ending the group stage with 6 points, leading Group D. In the round of 16, Austria's opponent will be the second team in Group F.

Winning the top spot, the Austrian team also pushed the second-placed team France (5 points) into the "death" bracket, which also includes host Germany, Spain and Portugal.

In the round of 16, coach Didier Deschamps and his team will face the second team in group E and if they continue, they may have to face Portugal.

Meanwhile, the Netherlands still have only 4 points, falling from first place in the group to third. The "Orange whirlwind" is still waiting to see who their opponent in the knockout round will be (most likely it will be England).

Because Group C and D both have third-placed teams advancing, the Croatian team has officially had to say goodbye to EURO 2024.

Thus, up to this point, the 11 participating teams in the round of 16 of EURO 2024 have been determined, including Germany, Switzerland (Group A), Spain, Italy (Group B), England, Denmark, Slovenia (Group C), Austria, France, Netherlands (Group D) and Portugal (Group F).

The remaining five teams in the knockout round will be determined after the final matches of Groups E and F. The results of these two groups will also have a great influence on the fate of the Hungarian team.

The teams that have been eliminated from EURO this year include Scotland, Croatia, Albania, Serbia and Poland.
