Only Georgia were lower in the FIFA rankings than the minnows, but Albania had the significant disadvantage of being drawn into Group B alongside Italy, Spain and the aforementioned Croatia.<\/p>\n<p>Up against three sides perched inside FIFA\u2019s top ten, Albania could have been obliterated. However, they stood tall and disrupted the powerhouses they had been thrust into competition with.<\/p>\n<p>Scoring the quickest goal in Euros history, Albania fell to a narrow 2-1 defeat to Italy before earning an admirable point against Croatia the following game. They tasted defeat against Spain to close out their campaign, but they did themselves proud in a 1-0 loss.<\/p>\n<p>Expected to be embarrassed in Germany, Albania impressed on the biggest stage with some encouraging displays.

Unfortunately for Serhiy Rebrov\u2019s side, all of their group stage opponents also amassed the same total.<\/p>\n<p>As a result, a 3-0 defeat to Romania in their opener proved irreparable, with that particularly poor day at the office the defining match of their Euro 2024 campaign.<\/p>\n<p>Ukraine did improve, however. A strong second-half showing against Slovakia, capped by a wonderful Roman Yaremchuk goal, handed them a 2-1 victory, while they could have stunned Belgium in the final group game had they been more clinical during a goalless draw.<\/p>\n<p>Given everything that is going on in Ukraine currently, their presence at the tournament is truly remarkable in itself.<\/p>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"_0txeypl6p\">6.\u00a0Croatia<\/h2>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ghanamma.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/01j1ct8kyqsh56jpcdqn.jpg\" alt=\"Luka Modric\" title=\"Luka Modric\"\/><\/figure>\n<p>Even Luka Modric couldn\u2019t save Croatia from elimination \/ Dan Mullan\/GettyImages<\/p>\n<p>It was an incredibly frustrating campaign for Luka Modric and Croatia, who have established themselves as a real force in tournament football despite their low population.<\/p>\n<p>Dismantled 3-0 by\u00a0Spain\u00a0in their opening match, the 2018 World Cup finalists did end up having a real chance of making it through to the knockout stages after putting themselves in winning positions against Albania and Italy.<\/p>\n<p>But goals conceded in the 95th and 98th minute respectively cost Croatia dear \u2013 mental lapses that were wholly unexpected with the experience and quality in their side. The age of the golden generation now appears to be passing too, so it will be interesting to see how they bounce back.<\/p>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"_stgdzjvy2\">5.\u00a0Czechia<\/h2>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ghanamma.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/01j1cvbszzatfnf67fv9.jpg\" alt=\"TOPSHOT-FBL-EURO-2024-MATCH36-CZE-TUR\" title=\"TOPSHOT-FBL-EURO-2024-MATCH36-CZE-TUR\"\/><\/figure>\n<p>A red card in their final group game proved costly \/ JOHN MACDOUGALL\/GettyImages<\/p>\n<p>Czechia were unfortunate during the group stage. Ivan Hasek\u2019s men were unlucky to concede a 92nd-minute winner to\u00a0Portugal\u00a0in their opening match, with the equaliser in that game having come via an even unluckier Robin Hranac own goal.<\/p>\n<p>In their final group game, they needed victory against Turkey to progress. However, after just 20 minutes, Antonin Barak was sent off for a harsh second yellow card, after which they conceded another stoppage-time strike to condemn them to a 2-1 defeat.<\/p>\n<p>However, had they beaten Georgia \u2013 the lowest-ranked side in the competition \u2013 in between those matches, they would have potentially progressed.

Yet again, they failed to deliver under pressure, even if they were missing their talisman Robert Lewandowski for the first match.<\/p>\n<p>That was perhaps their best display, too. They performed well against the Netherlands and even took the lead as Lewandowski\u2019s replacement Adam Buksa headed them in front. A late goal for the Dutch was coming, but conceding to Wout Weghorst always hurts.<\/p>\n<p>However, their display against Austria was pretty tepid and they were outclassed by a superior team with a more dynamic approach.

Some had declared them potential dark horses prior to the tournament but, much like Turkey at Euro 2020, they failed to live up to the billing.<\/p>\n<p>Their opening defeat to Switzerland was disappointing and costly despite a stronger second-half display, while Germany proved far, far too tough for them come the second game of the group.<\/p>\n<p>Yes, Hungary did beat Scotland. However, the Tartan Army were similarly woeful (we\u2019ll come to them) and Hungary were only able to capitalise on Steve Clarke\u2019s side frantically throwing bodies forward in stoppage time.<\/p>\n<p>Their 1-0 victory against Scotland was undoubtedly the lowest quality game of the tournament \u2013 and we\u2019ve seen England play three times.<\/p>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"_ie7o8x10r\">2.\u00a0Serbia<\/h2>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ghanamma.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/01j1cw7bq3vf5hyqs8rr.jpg\" alt=\"Milos Veljkovic\" title=\"Milos Veljkovic\"\/><\/figure>\n<p>Serbia have a poor record at major tournaments \/ Image Photo Agency\/GettyImages<\/p>\n<p>A front two of Dusan Vlahovic and Aleksandar Mitrovic had the ability to fire Serbia to the knockout stages in a mediocre group. The pair finished Euro 2024 with zero goals, three big chances missed and only four shots on target between them.<\/p>\n<p>Their ineffectiveness epitomised a Serbia team full of talent but lacking in ideas. Their build-up play too slow and their chances too fleeting, so it was hardly surprising to see them make an early exit.<\/p>\n<p>Similarly to Poland, this is not the first time that Serbia have underwhelmed on the big stage.

That evidently had a major impact on confidence in\u00a0Germany, as did a 5-1 thrashing at the hands of the hosts in the tournament opener.<\/p>\n<p>A cagey draw with Switzerland followed and then came a disastrous 1-0 defeat to Hungary. We\u2019ve already covered just how woeful that game of football was.<\/p>\n<p>The problems for Scotland were scattered across the pitch. A toothless attack with no natural width and no goalscoring centre-forward, a midfield performing below its usual level and a defence that is almost exclusively made up of Championship players \u2013 or those of a similar standard.<\/p>\n<p>It was never likely to end well, and it certainly didn\u2019t.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ghanamma.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/image-1611-1024x576.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-884174\"  \/><\/figure>\n<p><!-- CONTENT END 1 --><\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Despite spanning half the tournament, just a third of nations at Euro 2024 have been eliminated at the end of the group stage.
