Group E of Euro 2024 is the only one in history to end with all teams tied on points

With two matches, Group E of Euro 2024 ended this Wednesday. In Frankfurt, Slovakia and Romania drew 1-1, while Romania and Belgium drew 0-0 in Stuttgart. With these results, the group made history in the competition with an unprecedented feat: all teams finished with equal points.

Each team had a record of one win, one draw and one defeat, all of which ended with four points. The classified countries were decided through goal difference. Romania and Belgium finished with a positive difference of one goal, but the Romanians scored two more goals than the Belgians and finished in first place.

Slovakia finished the group in third place, with zero balance. The Slovaks qualified as one of the best third-placed teams. Ukraine did not have the same luck and, with a negative balance of two goals, they were the only team eliminated from the group.
