Robert Lewandowski returned to salvage a point for Poland, converting a penalty against France at the second time of asking to earn a draw in the final group stage game.
Donyell Malen, on the other hand, will be disappointed at the nature of the own goal in the crunch fixture against Austria. However, goals from Cody Gakpo and Memphis Depay helped them find a way back into the game.
Austria will face the team finishing second in Group F, in their Round of 16 fixture, while France will take on the second placed team from Group E. The Netherlands will have to wait for the draw to figure out their next opponents.
When is the final of Euro 2024?
