Euro 2024 Last 16 Draw: England, Netherlands Avoid Clash - Check Fixtures
Georgia's shock 2-0 win over Portugal has eliminated Hungary and meant that England will face Slovakia in the UEFA European Championship 2024 round of 16, while Netherlands will meet Romania
Both the Three Lions and the Oranje had already qualified for the knockout stage following their respective third matches on Tuesday, but the identity of their opponents in the next round was still awaited.
And it had appeared likely two of Europe's heavyweights would meet in the round of 16, with the Netherlands third in their group and potentially paired with Group C winners England.
However, Georgia's shock win against Portugal altered the draw, sending Hungary home at the debutants' expense.
Spain, the only team with a 100 per cent record, will face Georgia, while Portugal play Slovenia.
Instead of the Netherlands, England will meet Slovakia, with Ronald Koeman's men instead set for a clash with Group E winners Romania.
The half of the draw involving England and the Netherlands appears wide open, with a number of heavyweights doing battle in the opposite side.
