How to watch UEFA European Championship Qualifying match from anywhere?

The UEFA Euro 2024 qualifying tournament is a football competition that is being played from March 2023 to March 2024 to determine the 23 UEFA member men’s national teams that will join the automatically qualified host team Germany in the UEFA Euro 2024 final tournament.

The competition is linked with the 2022–23 UEFA Nations League, which gives countries a secondary route to qualify for the final tournament

Already assured of at least a spot in March’s playoffs, the Azzurri needed four points from its final two Group C games to automatically qualify for next summer’s tournament in Germany.

With Italy’s final group match set for Monday against Ukraine, it really needed all three Friday in Rome over North Macedonia — the same opponent that denied the four-time World Cup champs a trip to soccer’s marquee event last year in Qatar — to avoid a must-win situation early next week.

A total of 53 UEFA member associations entered the qualifying process. The draw for the qualifying group stage took place at the Festhalle in Frankfurt on 9 October 2022.

The last two rounds of qualifiers on the road to Euro 2024 will see the final automatic places secured, while we’ll find out the 12 countries that face playoffs in March to complete the 24-team lineup.

Twenty countries qualify, plus the hosts (Germany). That leaves three up for grabs through those playoffs — with paths created via the final positions of the 2022 UEFA Nations League.
