Poland – Poland has become the first country to be eliminated from Euro 2024 following a 0-0 draw between France and the Netherlands on Friday night.
The goalless draw between France and the Netherlands is likely to secure both teams a spot in the Round of 16. The expanded format of the tournament allows some third-placed teams to advance, and no team has been eliminated with four points since this format was introduced.
Earlier in the day, Poland suffered a 3-1 defeat against Austria, sealing their fate in the competition. Despite their efforts, Poland’s performance in the group stage did not earn enough points to progress.
Austria, with their upcoming match against the Netherlands, also have a favorable chance of advancing. Poland will conclude their Euro 2024 campaign with a final match against France next Tuesday.
As Poland exits the tournament, the focus shifts to the remaining teams battling for a spot in the knockout stages. The competition continues to intensify, promising more thrilling encounters as the Round of 16 approaches.
