Host Germany surprised fans by fielding their strongest squad, but they struggled to a 1-1 draw with Switzerland in the final match of Group A at Euro 2024. However, this result was enough for Germany to continue as the top team in Group A. However, this inadvertently caused coach Julian Nagelsmann and his team to fall into a difficult bracket in the knockout round. For now, "Die Mannschaft" will continue in the upper bracket with the participation of two teams with very high performance at Euro 2024, Portugal and Spain. In the round of 16, Germany will meet the second team in Group C, which could be England or Denmark. Moreover, this bracket also has the appearance of the second team in Group D. And it is highly likely that it will be one of the two other championship candidates: the Netherlands or France. It is also possible that Belgium will also be present in this bracket (second place in Group E). Group E is currently very unpredictable with all 4 teams having 3 points. So if they make it through the round of 16, Julian Nagelsmann's team could face another title contender in the quarterfinals. That could be Portugal or the Netherlands, or even France. Germany will play their round of 16 match in the early morning of June 30. Their victory in Group A will make the other teams in the group have their own calculations for the knockout round.
