Belgium v Ukraine live – Euro 2024 Group E latest as struggling Belgium held by Ukraine, who suffer heartbreak in going out on four points

An unimpressive Belgium will be forced to face France in the last 16 of Euro 2024 after being held to a 0-0 draw by a battling Ukraine side in Stuttgart.

Despite earning a deserved point from a tense battle, Ukraine go out of the tournament after finishing bottom of Group E, where all four teams finished with four points after Slovakia and Romania drew 1-1 in Frankfurt. Read more here:

Slovakia and Romania finish 1-1. Romania win Group E as Belgium and Ukraine ends 0-0. Belgium finish second with Slovakia through in third spot. Ukraine the first team to fail to make it through on four points. Phew, what a finish.

Yannick Carrasco goes for goal when the wiser move was to run down the clock. Belgium heading for a last-16 match with France as it stands.

This match so tight and tense as Georgiy Sudakov produces a brilliant run, but the finish is not there as he side foots the ball into the arms of Casteels. One goal will win it now.

Ruslan Malinovskyi with another blistering hit from distance, but solid defending by Castagne to get his frame in the way. Change for Belgium sees Lukaku depart to be replaced by Lois Openda.

Ukraine caught up the other end of the pitch as De Bruyne and Lukaku break at pace, but the finish by Bakayoko is well wide in the end.

Yarmolenko opts to have a go at goal from distance, but blocked by Onana before Lukaku's cutback is defended well by Matviyenko. The yellow shirts chasing a goal, but Belgium can break.

Koen Casteels doing just enough to claw out the corner by sub Ruslan Malinovskyi at his near post. That was heading into the net. FIne stop in the end.

Still heading out the event with 10 minutes remaining of regulation time. Aleksandr Svatok makes way for Andriy Yarmolenko.

Ukraine are certainly starting to seek out space in the Belgian box as Artem Dovbyk thumps an effort into the side netting with Koen Casteels keeping a keen eye on the finish.

Off goes Doku with Johan Bakayoko of PSV Eindhoven thrown on. Still no nearer to finding out who will emerge victorious in Group E.

The goalkeeper showing his quality to beat out an effort by Yannick Carrasco that was travelling before Belgium do well to thwart the threat of Artem Dovbyk at the other end. Wout Faes mindful at the back.

A bold move, but they are clearly looking for some energy in the closing moments as Volodymyr Brazhko, Mykola Shaparenko and Roman Yaremchuk make way for Taras Stepanenko, Ruslan Malinovskyi and Vladyslav Vanat. Remember, Ukraine heading out of the tournament as things stand.

Artem Dovbyk is guilty of a late challenge on Onana. Hauled him back as he tried to make some ground and Anthony Taylor opts to produce the yellow card.

Have really tracked back so well today as Tymchyk races back to make a superb challenge on Yannick Carrasco as he tried to get a shot away. Excellent block as Trubin collects again for Ukraine.

A bit of a silly one from the Man City winger as he clips Tymchyk with a late foul and Ukraine can clear the danger.

De Bruyne with a decent little pass into the path of Lukaku, but he can't get any pace on the finish as Trubin makes a comfortable stop low to his right. More frustration for the Red Devils.

Youri Tielemans and Leandro Trossard depart the scene for Belgium with Orel Mangala and Yannick Carrasco introduced. Taut moments ahead.

Artem Dovbyk sets off too early from the ball over the top and the flag is raised. All very tense with one goal likely to settle this match.

Looks like Vitalii Mykolenko has suffered some damage to his ankle ligaments in a challenge. And he walks off the pitch. He will be replaced by Oleksandr Zinchenko as Doku's ball across the face of goal fails to pick out Lukaku. Still 0-0.
