Chaotic scenes at the final whistle as Turkey score a late winner to beat Czechia. 

Tomas Chory was shown a straight red card - Czechia's second of the night - and there were 18 yellows brandished throughout the 90 minutes. 

Portugal have lost 2-0 against Georgia in a remarkable final group stage clash. 

It means England will face Slovakia in the last 16. 

Meanwhile, a 94th-minute goal by former Everton forward Cenk Tosun sealed a 2-1 win for Turkey over Czechia. 

There were some tense scenes after full-time with at least one red card shown. 

Cristiano Ronaldo has been substituted as Portugal search a route back into their clash with Georgia. 

The 39-year-old forward kicked the air as he walked towards the dugout. 

He was replaced by Goncalo Ramos. 

Georges Mikautadze finds the bottom corner from the spot!

What a huge moment for Georgia, who are going through as it stands. 

And England will play Slovakia. 

Oh wow...

Drama in Gelsenkirchen as Georgia have a penalty!

It looks harsh. 

Turkey have finally broken the deadlock against Czechia. 

Hakan Calhanoglu has given them the lead six minutes into the second half. 

It's half-time in both Group F matches. 

Georgia took a shock lead against Portugal within two minutes. 

Cristiano Ronaldo and Co. have struggled to get back into the game. 

Ten-man Czechia are goalless against Turkey. Antonin Barak received two yellows cards inside 20 minutes. 

Yellow card for Cristiano Ronaldo as he over-exuberantly appeals for a penalty.

He felt that his shirt was being pulled at a corner.

Although able to speak to the referee as Portugal’s captain, his actions crossed the threshold for dissent.

It's a remarkable start to Group F's final matches!

Kvicha Kvaratskhelia has given Georgia the lead against Cristiano Ronaldo's Portugal. 

The Napoli winger drove into the left channel and fired a left-footed strike across goal and into the bottom corner. 

Portugal remain top of the group. 

Remember, England will be keeping a close eye on the games tonight as they will learn their last-16 opponents. 

The Three Lions are most likely to play Netherlands on Sunday evening. 

Gareth Southgate's side could also play Slovakia but would need either of the following scenarios to happen for that to be the case: 

- Czechia beat Turkey by one or two goals (and any result in Portugal vs. Georgia)

- Georgia beat Portugal (and any result in Czechia vs. Turkey)

Cristiano Ronaldo starts for Portugal in their clash with Georgia at 8pm. 

The Euro 2024 group stage concludes tonight.

Portugal face Georgia and Czechia battle with Turkey. 

Ukraine have held Belgium to a shock goalless draw at Euro 2024. 

Remarkably, all four teams in Group E have finished with four points. 

Despite a hard-fought draw with the Belgians, Ukraine are out of the the tournament due to their -2 goal difference. 

Slovakia are through as one of the best third-placed teams after their 1-1 draw with Romania.

Express Sport's Charlie Gordon is the unlucky man in the Deutsche Bank Park rain. 

Charlie tells us: "The heavens opened during the second half at Frankfurt Arena, drenching players from both sides and delighting the raucous Romanian support.

"There were nervous looks from fans and journalists when a loud bang erupted - presumably from a lightning bolt hitting the stadium - and there were further claps of thunder thereafter to add an unlikely twist to a scorching day in Germany."

The weather has taken a turn for the worse at the Deutsche Bank Stadium. 

Lightning struck the venue, causing the television broadcast to distort momentarily. 

The players are getting soaked as torrential rain hammers down in Frankfurt. 

Latest scores:

Slovakia 1-1 Romania

Belgium 0-0 Ukraine

A thumping penalty by Razvan Marin has put Romania level. 

VAR intervened to overrule a free-kick awarded by the referee, pointing out that the foul had taken place inside the penalty area. 

Kevin De Bruyne was targeted by lasers during Belgium's clash with Ukraine. 

The Belgian playmaker was unhappy as a laser was beamed onto his face. 

It remains goalless...

We've got our first goal in the 5pm fixtures...

And it's a big one for Slovakia as Andrej Duda heads them in front against Romania. 

As it stands, Slovakia are going through as Group E winners ahead of Belgium. 

England will find out their last-16 opponents this evening. 

Group E matches between Slovakia and Romania, and Ukraine vs Belgium get underway at 5pm. 

England may play one of those teams, or the Netherlands, depending on this evening's results. 

Phil Foden has left the England camp and returned to the UK over a family matter, the FA have confirmed. 

The Manchester City midfielder started all three of England's group matches at Euro 2024. 

The FA say Foden's return to the UK is 'temporary'.

Netherlands boss Ronald Koeman has launched a scathing attack on his players following their surprise defeat to Austria.

The former Everton boss did not mince his words, saying: "We started very badly. We did not defend well. We were not aggressive.

"There was a lack of pressure and we lost the ball as well, particularly at the start so it was really very bad. The players ran a lot but not in the positions so it was awful, very bad.

"We did not control the match. The match against France was reasonable as a team, but today it was appalling."

Gary Neville believes Gareth Southgate's treatment of Trent Alexander-Arnold at the Euros would be enough to leave him 'devastated'.

The Liverpool right-back, who has recently been deployed in midfield, was the only player dropped for last night's goalless draw with Serbia.

Speaking on ITV, Neville said: "I do want to mention Trent Alexander-Arnold. I know it’s a big boy’s game and you can be left out of a football match.

"But I do feel that this is the best right-back we’ve ever produced by a million miles in terms of in possession, and he’s now sat on the bench wondering: ‘What the hell’s going on?’.

"He’ll probably be devastated."

Serbia hooligans were involved in violent clashes with German police ahead of their game against Denmark last night.

At least 10 people were reportedly injured in the clashes, which saw officers in riot gear pelted with bottles and chairs.

Batons and pepper spray were used by police in an attempt to quell the disturbance, according to the Daily Star.

England are at risk of being fined by UEFA after fans threw plastic cups onto the pitch following last night's goalless draw with Slovenia.

The governing body has already punished Albania, Serbia and Croatia for fans throwing objects onto the pitch during the tournament.

Fines totalling £23,099 were dished out to those nations as a result of the incidents in question.

It has been suggested that UEFA may decide to ban drinking alcohol in stadiums if such behaviour continues.

Police in Germany are investigating an incident in which a young Croatia fan was allegedly bitten by a woman during a melee for Luka Ivanusec's shirt.

The incident was said to have taken place after Croatia's draw with Italy in Leipzig on Monday night.

A police spokesperson told The Mirror: "We can inform you that a robbery happened around 11:10pm. A 20-year-old man caught the jersey of a player and unknown suspects tried to take it from him.

"An unknown woman bit him on the shoulder, causing the 20-year-old to release the jersey and the suspects to steal it. The 20-year-old was injured and taken to a hospital.

"The criminal police is now investigating on suspicion of robbery."

Anthony Gordon is under no illusion that England are yet to hit their stride at Euro 2024.

Speaking after his cameo appearance from the bench against Slovenia, he said: "Our aim was to make a statement and correct the performances we've had in the last two games.

"I still think we're in that place. We've still got to do better. Luckily for us we've topped the group and we're through, which is the most important thing.

"I just think we can do so much better, that's the problem. We've got such good players and we train so good every day. It's just not clicking.

"Hopefully in the coming games it will because we really need to start dominating games and attacking teams."

Serbia manager Dragan Stojkovic aimed a scathing dig at England after his side were knocked out of Euro 2024 in the group stages.

England's only win of the group stage came against Serbia, with Jude Bellingham's early goal securing all three points for the Three Lions.

After the final whistle in Serbia's draw with Denmark last night, Stojkovic did not hold back as he highlighted just how poor England have been.

He said: "Everyone thought England might be some miracle from another planet but they were nothing like that. The expectations were just different."

Richard Keys has urged the FA to sack Gareth Southgate and replace him with Harry Redknapp before the Euro 2024 knockout stages.

Redknapp has not managed a side at any level since 2017 but Keys is convinced that he would be able to solve England's current problems.

Speaking on beIN Sports, the former Sky Sports presenter said: "Harry Redknapp is sat in Dubai tonight. Give him a call. Do you think he'd be on a plane tomorrow morning? Too right he would."

Two England stars were given lowly ratings of 3/10 as French newspaper L'Equipe issued a damning assessement of their display against Slovenia.

Kyle Walker was singled out as one of England's 'flops', with the report stating he 'practically missed everything he did'.

Jude Bellingham was also handed a 3/10 rating while Conor Gallagher received the same treatment.

The highest rating for an England player was just 6/10, given to Jordan Pickford, Declan Rice and Harry Kane.

L'Equipe have gained a reputation for giving harsh verdicts on players but it is hard to argue with their view of England's dire display.

Hello and welcome to Express Sport's rolling coverage of the latest Euro 2024 news as the dust settles on another dire England display.

Last night's draw against Slovenia was enough for the Three Lions to win their group but it was a tough watch to say the very least.
