Euro 2024 Group A: Germany & Switzerland Booked Automatic Qualification while Scotland Crashed Out

Host Germany made a crucial comeback to secure a 1-1 draw against Switzerland on Sunday in Frankfurt. Niclas Fullkrug's stoppage-time header helped Germany secure the top spot in Group A and also see them advance to the knockout stage of Euro 2024. Meanwhile, Hungary secured a last-minute 1-0 victory over Scotland, putting themselves in the running for a spot in the round of 16 at the European Championship.

Germany's Robert Andrich thought he scored in the 17th minute, but the goal was disallowed due to a foul in the buildup by Jamal Musiala. Switzerland's Dan Ndoye then scored near the post in the 25th minute, giving his team a 1-0 lead. Despite Germany's enormous pressure in the second half, they struggled to get shots on target. With time running out, substitute Fullkrug scored a goal two minutes into stoppage time, saving Germany from defeat.

Germany will now face the second-place team in Group C in Dortmund on Saturday. Switzerland, on the other hand, will play the second-place team in Group B in Berlin on the same day, with Italy, Albania, and Croatia as potential opponents.

In Hungary's surprising 1-0 victory over Scotland, Kevin Csoboth's breakaway goal with the last kick of the match ensured that Hungary finished third in Group A with three points. Unfortunately, Scotland finished at the bottom with two points and did not qualify for the knockout phase of either the Euros or World Cup.

Hungary's chances of reaching the last 16 now depend on whether they will qualify as one of the best four third-place finishers. Their progress hinges on the results from other groups in the next couple of days.

• Germany 5-1 Scotland
• Hungary 1-3 Switzerland
