Georgia and the Czech Republic faced each other in the losers’ duel for the second round of Group F of the Euro Cup, where both teams faced each other due to the need to get the three points and stay alive in the championship.
Prior to this match, Georgia had just lost 3-1 to Turkey in Dortmund, and the Czech Republic also lost 2-1 to Portugal in Leipzig.
The match began with a certain intensity on the part of both teams, taking into account that both needed to find a result quickly to stay alive in the Euro Cup, and that is how it turned out to be for the Georgians and the Czechs.
The first team that would hit the scoreboard hard would be the Czechs, when in the 38th minute they would reach the goal thanks to Adam Hlozek. But the action would end up being canceled because the forward ended up finishing with his hand.
However, everything would end up turning out the other way around for the Czechs, since in stoppage time, specifically at 49 minutes of the first half, Georgia would reach the first goal of the match, when the striker, Georges Mikautadze, would score from the penalty spot, to place the advantage partially.
But that joy would not last as long in the complementary period for the Georgians, since at 59 minutes of the game the Czech Republic would equalize the score thanks to the forward and top figure of the team, Patrik Schick, after he took advantage of a rebound in the area after a corner kick.
In this way, Georgia and the Czech Republic equalized in their second appearance in the Euro Cup, and both teams will have to measure their future in the championship on the next date, when they play against Portugal and Turkey respectively.
