Georgia achieved a historic 2-0 victory over Portugal at Euro 2024, advancing to the knockout stages for the first time. Goals from Khvicha Kvaratskhelia and Georges Mikautadze secured their place in the last 16, where they will face Spain. Portugal, already confirmed as Group F winners, fielded a weakened side with eight changes, although Cristiano Ronaldo retained his spot.
Georgia’s passionate fans celebrated their nation’s momentous achievement, contributing to the tournament’s vibrant atmosphere. This result also means England will play Slovakia instead of the Netherlands in the knockout stages, potentially easing their path to the final. The 24-team format has led to early qualifications, allowing stronger teams to rest key players and creating opportunities for emerging teams like Georgia.
