Comments:

Although finishing in third position, Netherlands had now reached the knockout stages at UEFA European Championship tournaments for the eighth time in their last nine tournament appearances. . This was their first defeat in their last 12 group games at major tournaments since the 2014 FIFA World Cup (won nine). . Donyell Malen became the first Netherlands player to concede an own goal at a major tournament since Ernie Brandts against Italy in the 1978 FIFA World Cup. . Memphis Depay's goal was initially disallowed for handball but the decision was subsequently overturned following a VAR review.

Comments:

Group D winners Austria qualified for the knockout stages for the second consecutive UEFA European Championship tournament. They failed to progress from the group stage in their first two participations (2008 and 2016). . They had now lost two of their last 19 games (won 14); 3-2 versus Belgium in October 2023 and 1-0 against France at Euro 2024 (the top two ranked UEFA nations in the FIFA World Ranking). . Romano Schmid scored the 900th goal in UEFA European Championship tournaments.
