Euro 2024 qualified teams

Germany (host nation)

Germany didn’t need to go through the qualifying round as they were already guaranteed a spot in Euro 2024 as the hosts of the event.

This will be the Germans' 14th appearance in the European Championship, with coach Julian Nagelsmann the one tasked to lead the home team to glory.

They have won this tournament three times, lifting the titles in 1972, 1980, and 1996.

Spain and Scotland (Group A)

Spain booked a spot in Euro 2024 after finishing top of Group A. The Spaniards scored 21 points, recording seven wins and just one loss in the group stage.

Their final group win came at a huge price, though, with Gavi suffering an ACL injury. He will miss the remainder of the season and is a major doubt for next year's European Championship.

Scotland have also qualified after finishing second in Group A. The Scots scored 17 points in the group stage, recording five wins, two draws, and one loss.

France and the Netherlands (Group B)

France booked a place in Euro 2024 after finishing top of Group B.

Les Bleus went unbeaten in their group, recording seven wins and one draw. They scored 29 goals in the group stage, 14 of which came in the win against Gibraltar.

The Netherlands have also qualified after finishing second in Group B. Die Oranje scored 18 points in the group stage, recording six wins and two losses.

England and Italy (Group C)

England will be going to Germany next year after finishing top of Group C.

The Three Lions scored 20 points, recording six wins and two draws in the group stage.

Italy have also qualified after finishing second in Group C. The Azzurri booked a place in Euro 2024 after recording a controversial 0-0 draw against Ukraine in their final group match.

Turkey and Croatia (Group D)

Turkey secured a spot in Euro 2024 after winning Group D. They scored 17 points in the group stage, recording five wins, two draws, and one loss.

Ante Budimir helped Croatia book a place in Euro 2024, scoring the winning goal in their final group match over Armenia.

Croatia finished second in the group after recording a 1-0 win.

Albania and Czechia (Group E)

Albania will be going to Germany next year after finishing top of Group E.

They scored 15 points, recording four wins, three draws, and one loss in the group stage. Euro 2024 will be Albania's second international tournament.

Czechia have also qualified after finishing second in Group E. They also scored 15 points, but a tie-breaker dropped them to second place.

Belgium and Austria (Group F)

Belgium booked a spot in Euro 2024 after finishing top of Group F.

The Red Devils went unbeaten in their group, recording six wins and two draws. They scored 22 goals in the group stage, 14 of which came from star striker, Romelu Lukaku.

Austria have also qualified after finishing second in Group F. They scored 19 points in the group stage, recording six wins, one draw, and one loss.

Hungary and Serbia (Group G)

Hungary secured a place in Euro 2024 after winning Group G. They scored 18 points, recording five wins and three draws in the group stage.

Serbia have also qualified after finishing second in Group G. They scored 14 points in the group stage, recording four wins, two draws, and two losses.

Denmark and Slovenia booked spots in Euro 2024 after they each scored 22 points in Group H.

The Danes earned the top spot after beating Slovenia 2-1 in their final group match.

Romania and Switzerland (Group I)

Romania booked a spot in Euro 2024 after finishing top of Group I.

They scored 36 goals and conceded just twice in Group J. Cristiano Ronaldo was in fine form in the qualifiers, scoring 10 goals.

Slovakia have also qualified after finishing second in Group J. They scored 22 points in the group stage, recording seven wins, one draw, and two losses.
