Three teams have confirmed their relegation to the Tier B of the UEFA Nations League.
Group 1 Austria had a strong start to the competition, winning their first match against Croatia with a convincing 3 goals to 0.
But since then, Ralf Rangnick’s men have not seen glory as they went on to pick up a draw and 4 loss.
The final match against Croatia was crucial, as a win could have kept them up, automatically eliminating France but it wasn’t meant to be.
Perhaps, the most shocking would be the team from Group 3: England.
The Three Lions came in as one of the favorites to go far in the tournament.
But Gareth Southgate and his men were the shadows of their Euro 2021 selves, as they went on to pick up 2 draws and 3 Loss.
The loss against their Euro 2021 final opponents Italy was the ultimate decider, as they were sent packing from Tier A.
As it stands, they are winless in 5 going and are hoping to gain momentum today against Germany.
They will need all the motivation they can get, as the world cup draws closer.
Wales became the first team of the year’s edition and the 5th in the competition’s history to finish without a single win.
The Dragons came into the tournament with high momentum after a stunning display against Ukraine to book their place in the World Cup, a competition they haven’t participated in since 1958.
However, they couldn’t replicate their form, going to draw a single game and lose 5, the highest of this year’s edition.
The match between Switzerland and the Czech Republic in Group 2 will decide who will occupy the last relegation spot.
The Swiss have had a mediocre campaign, having lost 3 games.
But they were strong enough to earn victories against the giants of their group, Portugal and Spain, giving them 6 points.
Czech hasn’t gotten a victory since their 2-1 win against Switzerland and is at the bottom of the table with 4 points from 5 games.
A win would propel them out of the bottom, with a point difference between them but Switzerland will be chasing for either a draw or better still, a win.
A match will take place tomorrow at St. Gallen and will kick off at 7:45 pm alongside the heavyweight group decider clash between Portugal and Spain.
