The old continent's national teams continue the fight for tickets to the 2024 European Championship.

On Monday, a total of 12 matches were played in the qualifying groups.

England easily achieved victory in Group C, crushing North Macedonia 7-0 at home. Striker Bukayo Saka stood out among the winners with a "hat-trick," scoring unstoppable goals.

In Group B, France - the world runners-up - narrowly defeated Greece 1-0 in front of their own fans.
