The victory over Switzerland (1:0) also confirmed that the tricolors will be in the second prize pool at the draw on December 2.

In the team prepared by Edi Yordenescu, 6 wins and 4 draws.

In total, Romania scored 16 times, and below you can see all the successes that helped the national team make it to EURO 2024.

Romania and the version of the hell group from Euro-2024: with France, Holland and Italy

21 teams are known to have qualified for next summer’s final tournament in Germany, with the bottom three earning their tickets after the Nations League play-offs.

The most difficult group option that the tricolors could have after the draw would actually be going back in time: that is, the opponents we also faced at Euro 2008: France, Netherlands and Italy.

At the opposite pole, we could be drawn in a slightly more accessible group with opponents such as Slovakia and one of the winners of the play-offs in route C (Georgia, Luxembourg, Greece or Kazakhstan).

In summary, an easier group might look like this: Belgium, Slovakia, Luxembourg.

Know:

  • The last three available places at Euro 2024 will come from the Nations League after the play-offs next March.
