How Euro 2024 group qualifying ended…
Group A
Scotland were made to settle for second place after an entertaining 3-3 draw with Norway as Spain clinched top spot by beating Georgia 3-1.
Norway finished in third followed by Georgia and then Cyprus, who lost all eight of their matches.
Group B
France qualified for the finals unbeaten in their eight games and topped Group B ahead of the Netherlands.
The Republic of Ireland finished fourth in the group and missed out on a play-off place.
Group C
England officially secured the highest possible group-stage seeding at Euro 2024 despite having to come from behind to draw 1-1 away at North Macedonia.
They have 20 points from their eight games, while Italy beat Ukraine to the second qualifying spot despite being locked on 14 points apiece after a 0-0 draw in Germany – Ukraine will have a chance to qualify through the play-off round.
Group D
Wales failed to qualify automatically for the Euros after finishing third as Croatia beat Armenia 1-0 at home to finish in the top two.
Turkey’s 1-1 draw in Cardiff meant they ended as group winners.
Group E
Czech Republic booked their place at Euro 2024 after a 3-0 win over Moldova on Monday, where West Ham’s Thomas Soucek was on the scoresheet. They have qualified for an eighth successive Euros finals.
Group winners Albania – who qualified with a 1-1 draw away to Moldova earlier on Friday – were held to a 0-0 stalemate with the Faroe Islands in their final game.
Poland still have a chance to see their fate decided in the play-offs.
Group F
Belgium ensured they finished top by thrashing Azerbaijan 5-0, meaning Austria came second.
Sweden placed third after winning their final game 2-0 against rock-bottom Estonia.

Serbia could only draw 2-2 with bottom-placed Bulgaria, but they still finished second.
Group H
Denmark secured qualification for Euro 2024 with a 2-1 home win over Slovenia that ensured top spot in Group H.
The Danes have 22 points from 10 games, level with second-place Slovenia who could not overtake them due to their inferior head-to-head record.

Group I
Romania secured top spot as Switzerland were left to settle for second place.
Third-placed Israel are in the play-offs.
