By Ewan Murray Despite spanning half the tournament, just a third of nations at Euro 2024 have been eliminated at the end of the group stage. Only eight sides have packed their bags, marking the 2026 World Cup down in their calendar as they board planes home. For some, Euro 2024 has been an unmitigated disaster, while others have shone bright despite adversity. Ultimately, the outcome for all eight teams was the same, but several countries can beam with pride despite an early exit. Here are the eight eliminated Euro 2024 sides - ranked from best to worst. 8. AlbaniaAlbania were expected to be ...

By Katie Catherall Luka Modric shared an emotional exchange with a journalist following Croatia's 1-1 draw with Italy, during which he was labelled as 'one of the finest players' in the game. Italy's 98th-minute equaliser secured the defending champions a place in the round of 16, but it was an earlier goal from Real Madrid legend Modric that made headlines after the dramatic Euro 2024 fixture. Modric recovered quickly from seeing his penalty kick saved, firing a powerful shot into the back of the net to offer Croatia a chance at progression in the tournament. While his efforts were later null...

By Sean Walsh Luka Modric bemoaned that football is 'merciless and cruel' after Croatia's 1-1 draw with Italy left them on the brink of Euro 2024 elimination. Croatia have taken only two points from their group stage games and are in need of a minor miracle to secure a spot in the last 16. They finished third in Group C and need England to beat Slovenia by at least three goals on Tuesday to stand a chance of ranking among the four best third-place teams which would see them through to the knockout stage. Modric scored the opening goal of Croatia's matchday three encounter with Italy, but they ...

Italy 1-1 Croatia: Last-gasp draw earns Italy round of 16 spotItaly substitute Mattia Zaccagni scored in the last minute of stoppage time for Italy to advance to the knockout stage of Euro 2024 after drawing Croatia 1-1 on Monday. Luka Modric’s second-half strike looked like sending Croatia through as the Group B runner-up, but Zaccagni swept a brilliant shot inside the far post in the eighth minute of added time to cap a furious finale from the defending champions. Italy needed a point to progress, while Croatia realistically needed a win to stay in the tournament. The Croatians have two poin...

UEFA, Europe's football governing body, has handed down a series of disciplinary actions to Balkan nations as their teams have been involved in nationalist incidents at the Euro 2024 tournament in Germany. The latest measure was targeted at Albania's striker Mirlind Daku who was suspended for two games after leading fans in chanting anti-Serbian slogans after Albania-Croatia on Wednesday. Albania's football federation was slapped with a €47,250 fine because of the incident. The suspended Albanian player apologised on social media, while UEFA appointed an in-house investigator to study his “all...

By Jamie Spencer Croatia's Euro 2024 campaign hangs in the balance after conceding a 95th minute equaliser against Albania on matchday two, threatening to end what will likely be legendary midfielder Luka Modric's last international tournament at the group stage. Zlatko Dalic's side looked like they had done enough to claim a comeback victory after a humbling defeat to Spain four days earlier when Andrej Kramaric cancelled out Albania's early opener, followed by a quick-fire second courtesy of an unwitting ricochet off Klaus Gjasula. But it was Gjasula who became the Albanian hero deep into st...

By Sean Walsh Spain scored three first-half goals on their way to an emphatic win against Croatia on day two of Euro 2024. La Roja's new quick and direct style was too much for perennial tournament overachievers Croatia to handle at the Olympiastadion in Berlin. Zlatko Dalic's men missed a penalty and had a goal ruled out by VAR seconds apart towards the end of Saturday's encounter and now have it all to do in Group B. How the game unfoldedWith half an hour on the clock, Spain took the lead. Croatia's centre-backs were caught napping, allowing too much space between themselves, and Fabian Ruiz...

By James Cormack While Luka Modric is still parading his brilliance in Croatia's midfield, the Vatreni will always back themselves to prosper at major tournaments. Zlatko Dalic's side proved in Qatar their ascent to the World Cup final was no fluke. Following a last-16 exit at Euro 2020, Croatia progressed to the semi-finals at the 2022 World Cup, knocking out pre-tournament favourites Brazil along the way. Dalic's outfit has evolved considerably from their 2018 vintage, although the principles that have seen Croatia emerge from their former dark-horse status into a potential favourite remain ...
