The group stages of Euro 2024 came to an end with a completely tied group, heartbreaking eliminations and the largest upset in history as per FIFA ranking.

On day 13, Georgia stunned Cristiano Ronaldo and Portugal with a very early Khvicha Kvaratskhelia golazo and Georges Mikautadze doubling the lead. Portugal still topped Group F with Turkey, who beat Czechia, also reaching the knockout stage along with history-makers Georgia.

Group E, though, saw the tough scenario of all four teams finishing with four points as Ukraine were eliminated. Romania were the surprise toppers of a group that had Belgium, whose goal woes continued, and Slovakia.
