In the EURO 2020 round of 16, the Croatia national team will play against the second-placed team from Group E, which is Spain.
After beating Scotland and finishing second in the group, Croatia knew they would play the second-placed team of Group E in the round of 16 on Monday in Copenhagen. There was total chaos ahead of the final round and all four teams had a chance to be second.
Spain outclassed Slovakia 5:0 and did their part, but Sweden went up 2:0 and held a solid first place in the group.
But when we thought it was the end, Lewandowski scored for 1:2, and six minutes before the end, he scored again. It seemed then that Croatia would face second-placed Sweden.
However, in the 94th minute, Claesson scored for 3:2, and Sweden finished first in Group E.
The Croatia and Spain match is scheduled for June 28 in Copenhagen at 18:00.
