England have qualified for the last 16 of Euro 2024 with a group game to spare after Spain beat Albania 1-0 on Monday.<\/p>\n
Victory for Luis de la Fuente\u2019s side also means the Netherlands and France progress from Group D into the knockout phase.<\/p>\n
The Three Lions finish their Group C campaign on Tuesday against Slovenia in Cologne (20:00 BST) but are already guaranteed to be in the next phase.<\/p>\n
Gareth Southgate\u2019s side have four points after a 1-0 win against Serbia and then a 1-1 draw with Denmark, but Albania\u2019s defeat ensured England would, at least, be one of the four best third-placed teams.<\/p>\n
England will win Group C if they beat Slovenia, while they could still come top if they draw and Denmark fail to beat Serbia.<\/p>\n
If England draw and Denmark win the two nations will be split for first and second place on overall goal difference, then overall goals scored, then disciplinary points.<\/p>\n
England cannot finish lower than third in Group C.<\/p>\n
If Albania had beaten Spain then England would have had to wait until Tuesday to secure their potential qualification, but Spain, European champions in 1964, 2008 and 2012, proved too strong.<\/p>\n
Who can England play in the last 16?
If England win the group they will play on Sunday at 17:00 BST in Gelsenkirchen against a third-placed side from either Group D, Group E or Group F.<\/p>\n
Austria are currently third in Group D with one round of matches to go, all four teams in Group E \u2013 Romania, Belgium, Slovakia and Ukraine \u2013 are on three points, while the Czech Republic are third in Group F, level on points but with a better goal difference over fourth-placed Georgia.<\/p>\n
It is more straightforward if England finish as group runners-up as they will then face hosts Germany in Dortmund on Saturday (20:00 BST).<\/p>\n
If England come third in Group C they will play either Group F winners Portugal in Frankfurt on Monday, 1 July (20:00 BST) or the Group E winners in Munich on Tuesday, 2 July (17:00 BST).<\/p>\n
