Own goal helps France edge Austria at Euro 2024

France beat Austria 1-0 to open their EURO 2024 with three points and a focus on defensive solidity in Frankfurt on June 17.

Maximilian Wober's 38th-minute own goal was the lone marker as the teams combined for just 20 shot attempts and 2.8 xG.

Group D's two winners meet June 21 in Leipzig when France face the Netherlands, with Poland and Austria facing a desperation scrap the same day.

June 25 is the final match day for the group, with Netherlands playing Austria and France squaring up with Poland.
