UEFA Euro 2024 qualifying Group C

From Wikipedia - Reading time: 8 min

Group C of UEFA Euro 2024 qualifying was one of the ten groups to decide which teams would qualify for the UEFA Euro 2024 final tournament in Germany. Group C consisted of five teams: England, Italy, Malta, North Macedonia, and Ukraine. The teams played against each other home-and-away in a round-robin format.[1] The group saw England and Italy meet again, having faced each other in the UEFA Euro 2020 final.[2]

The top two teams, England and Italy, qualified directly for the final tournament. The participants of the qualifying play-offs were decided based on their performance in the 2022–23 UEFA Nations League.
