Euro 2024 group stage play wraps up Wednesday, which means the knockout bracket will be set. Unlike other international tournaments, only the teams finishing fourth in the group are officially eliminated from the competition. Teams that finish in third place will have to wait for all the results to know if they have secured a spot in the round of 16. The top four third-place teams make the knockout round, so there will be a lot of eyes on Wednesday’s final games.
The first tiebreaker here is goal differential with the second tiebreaker being goals scored. Wins in the group stage is the next tiebreaker, followed by better disciplinary record and UEFA ranking. Since Germany is not involved in this, there will be no possibility of a random draw.
Here’s a look at the final standings for the third-place teams at Euro 2024.
