Euro 2020: 12 countries qualify for Round of 16

Date:

At least 12 countries have booked their places in the last 16 of the ongoing European Champions after Monday’s fixtures.
England sealed qualification without kicking a ball. The Three Lions were second in Group D behind Czech Republic, who they faced on Tuesday as they both battles to determine group winners.
The four best third-placed teams from the six groups at the rearranged Euros progress to the round of 16.
Denmark, Switzerland, Netherlands, Belgium, Sweden, Czech Republic and France are also through to the last 16.
Some fixtures in the next round have also been confirmed. Wales face Denmark and Italy clash with Austria.
Similarly, the Euro 2020 semi-finals and finals will be held at Wembley with more than 60,000 fans allowed to attend.
This comes after talks were held between the UK Government and UEFA. It means Wembley Stadium will have 75 percent capacity for the climax of this summer’s European Championship.
“This tournament has been a beacon of hope to reassure people that we are returning to a more normal way of life and this is a further step along that road,” the UEFA president Aleksander Ceferin said Attachments area
