Germany qualified for the 8th. Switzerland well placed. In Group B, Croatia and Albania see their chances of qualifying reduced
The party was at its height last night in Germany. The host country of theEuro 2024 football team is the first team to qualify for the round of 16.
The Mannschaft won their second match 2-0 against Hungary in Stuttgart. Jostled by a solid Hungarian team, Germany finally managed to get through it thanks to its team.
The young prodigy Jamal Musiala added a goal to his tally, his second in two games. The captain Ilkay Gundongan completed his team’s victory in the second half.
In the other Group A match, Scotland got their first point against Switzerland. But she squandered her early lead by making a huge defensive error that gifted a goal to Xherda Shaqiri on a silver platter.
The Swiss will compete for first place in Group A against the Germans this Sunday evening.
In Group B
After its defeat against Spain (0-3), the Croatian selection had to concede at the very end of the game on Wednesday a draw (2-2) against Albania. The round of 16 is now away for the 2018 World Vice-Champions, unless they manage to beat Italy in their final match.
