Slovakia defeated Belgium 1-0 

In today's European Championship match, Slovakia defeated Belgium 1-0 despite Belgium's wastefulness thanks to Ivan Schranz's fastest goal at a major tournament. This resulted in the first upset of the continental championships in Germany.

In a day when everything could go wrong in the Group E match, it did—despite the fact that a large portion of their unfortunate circumstances were self-inflicted. It was also Belgium's first defeat in 16 games under head coach Domenico Tedesco and a throwback to their disastrous 2022 World Cup campaign. Romelu Lukaku had two goals disallowed off his boot, the first for offside and the second for a handball in the build-up. It was an extremely disappointing day for the powerful striker, who also missed a number of easy opportunities. Romania and Slovakia are now tied atop the rankings following Slovakia's 3-0 victory over Ukraine in Munich earlier on Monday. Belgium will play Romania on Saturday in Cologne.
