For the Slovak national team, this is the third Euro in history; Earlier in 2016, the team managed to exit the group by beating Russia and drawing against England. Then the Slovaks lost to Germany.
Then at Euro 2020, Slovakia also finished third in the group, but this time did not qualify for the playoffs. A victory against Poland was not enough, as there was a crushing defeat against Spain 0:5 and Slovakia had the worst goal difference among all third places.
Slovakia qualified for Euro 2024 by finishing second in a group with Portugal, Luxembourg, Bosnia, Iceland and Liechtenstein.
Belgium reached the Euro final in 1980 and lost 1:2 to Germany. In 1972, they took third place by beating Hungary. In the new history, the best result is the quarter-finals of Euro 2016 and Euro 2020. In the first case there was a defeat of Wales, in the second – of Italy . As a result, the wonderful Belgian generation could not even reach the semi-finals. And from this generation, there are only a few players left who may no longer play at Euro 2028. First of all, Kevin De Bruyne. The new generation is no longer as bright and Belgium is no longer the tournament favorite as it once was.
