Group C: Netherlands shock North Macedonia © AFP

In the European Football Championship in Group C, the Dutch, who had already secured first place, relaxed and played their last match against North Macedonia. The latter team also played without pressure, as they had already lost all chances to reach the quarterfinals. The hosts did not shy away from the active game of the Macedonians, did not guard too much, and won 3:0. In the 9th minute, Macedonian G. Pandev scored a goal, which was disallowed due to offside. In the 21st minute, A. Trajkovski hit the crossbar and the score remained unchanged. If you don't score, they will - after a counterattack, M. Depay rejoices with a precise shot (1:0). Soon G. Wijnaldum wasted another opportunity. In the 51st minute, the same G. Wijnaldum was already successful, when he took advantage of M. Depay's assist - 2:0. In the 58th minute, the goalkeeper repeated the ball cleared from the goalkeeper, and the result became crushing - 3:0. The teams exchanged chances, but the score remained the same.
