Belgium got their Euro 2024 campaign back on track after an impressive 2-0 win against Romania, with goals from Youri Tielemans and Kevin De Bruyne enough to take the points and leave Group E wide open.

Romelu Lukaku was the architect of the first Belgian goal and teed Tielemans up perfectly to fire home a superb effort from just inside the area in the second minute.

De Bruyne had chances throughout a polished Belgian performance and doubled the lead with 10 minutes left when he latched on to a long ball from goalkeeper Koen Casteels and found the net from seven metres out.

The result leaves all four teams in Group E on three points going into the Wednesday’s final matches, when Belgium take on Ukraine and Romania face Slovakia.

Euro 2024: Georgia 1-1 Czech Republic

80 mins

Can either side find a winner? A draw doesn’t really do either of them any good at this point.

Jurasek fires a wild effort well over from distance, and Georgia enjoy some brief possession before Soucek is booked for a sliding challenge on Kvaratskhelia. Harsh.

The Czech Republic make two more changes, with Antonin Barak and Petr Ševčík coming on for David Jurasek and Lukas Provod.

Georgia do the same, with Kvaratskhelia and Kverkvelia coming off for Saba Lobzhanidze and Giorgi Gvelesiani.

Promising effort from the Czechs as Jurasek swings the cross in from the left. Chytil glances his head towards goal, but it flies wide of the far post.

Moments later, the ball bounces kindly to Lingr on the outside of the box, and he tests Mamardashvili with a low shot, which the Valencia ‘keeper is equal to.

Schick has got the Czech Republic back into the game but he’s going to have to come off. He’s feeling his calf and he’s replaced by Mojmír Chytil.

GOAL! And the Czech Republic are level!

It’s a simple one too, as the corner comes in and Lingr heads it across goal. It hits the inside of the far post and bounces straight off Patrik Schick and into the net!

HALF-TIME! Georgia 1-0 Czech Republic

CLOSE! Brilliant save from Mamardashvili!

The Czech Republic go up the other end and Soucek plays a pass to Schick on the edge of the box. He takes it under control and slips past one challenge before firing a low shot at goal, which Mamardashvili does brilliantly well to get down low to his right and save!

The referee blows for half-time, and Georgia have the lead after a frantic half in Hamburg!
