The Euro 2024 fixture list is now complete after the Play-Off Finals, as Georgia, Ukraine and Poland qualified for the tournament this summer, with Juventus goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny the hero.

Georgia were forced to go all the way through extra time to a penalty shoot-out until they could finally get past Greece, with Napoli striker Kvicha Kvaratskhelia limping off due to a groin injury.

They will enter Group F along with Turkey, Portugal and Czechia.

Ukraine fought back from an early goal by Genoa forward Albert Gudmundsson, turning it around in the second half through Viktor Tsygankov and Mykhailo Mudryk.

Both assists were provided by Juventus and Napoli transfer target Georgiy Sudakov.

Genoa midfielder Ruslan Malinovskyi was in the starting XI for Ukraine, who will be in Group E with Belgium, Slovakia and Romania.

There were several Serie A players involved for Poland in the trip to Wales, including Roma wing-back Nicola Zalewski, Napoli midfielder Piotr Zielinski and Szczesny.

It was goalless after 90 minutes and throughout extra time, so they could only be separated by a penalty shoot-out in Cardiff.

Zalewski converted his kick and Szczesny made the decisive save to deny Dan James in the last penalty of the run.
