Only two are guaranteed safe passage to the last 16, although it is likely that all three will progress.

In the second group stage matches, the unexpected happened.

France needed an Antoine Griezmann goal midway through the second half to draw 1-1 with Hungary, while Portugal gave away a Cristiano Ronaldo lead in Munich against a rampant Germany that ended up winning 4-2. It was the first time that a titleholder conceded four goals.

The results leave France topping Group F with four points, Germany and Portugal both have three points, but Germany are second on the head-to-head basis. Hungary have one point.

This leaves the group-wide open ahead of the final round of group matches, with all four teams still having a chance to progress.
