Poland and Netherlands battle it out in Hamburg, with France and Austria also contending in Group D

Gareth Southgate calls Harry Kane 'old' ahead of England's first match of Euros

Netherlands beat Poland to begin day three at Euro 2024 in exciting fashion, with Wout Weghorst scoring the late winner after the Dutch were forced to come from behind.

Despite starting strongly, Ronald Koeman’s side conceded the opener through Adam Buksa’s header, before Cody Gakpo - the standout performer in the first half - equalised via a big deflection. The second 45 minutes was a more even affair until the strength in depth on Netherlands’ bench started to show, and Weghorst netted the winner a few minutes from full time.

Matches against Austria and France follow this clash for each nation, but the Dutch have taken a huge step forward, while Poland will hope Robert Lewandowski returns to full fitness soon. Follow the live blog below for the Poland vs Netherlands reaction - plus news ahead of Sunday’s other games:

Good morning!

Poland and the Netherlands kick off their Euro 2024 campaigns with a Group D meeting in Hamburg.

But manager Michal Probierz will be without talisman Robert Lewandowski for the tournament opener with the veteran striker nursing a thigh problem.
