Germany 0-0 Czech Republic

Plajtl reacts to his miss

Marek Plájtl missed a late chance as the Czech Republic and Germany produced only the second nil-nil draw of EuroCup 12.

News of Scotland and Greece's 1-1 draw however means that the Czechs and the Germans are both through to the next round based on their superior goal difference, with the Czechs winning the group to face England; the Germans will get France.

Highlights:

Scotland 1-1 Greece

Jezza reacts to news elsewhere
