- Georgia and star forward Khvicha Kvaratskhelia are going to their first major tournament after beating Greece in a penalty shootout following a 0-0 draw in their European Championship qualifying playoff on Tuesday.
Nika Kvekveskiri placed a decisive spot-kick low into the corner to seal Georgia’s 4-2 win in the shootout. Greece captain Tasos Bakasetas had his opening penalty saved and Giorgos Giakoumakis pulled his shot wide of the goal.
Kvaratskhelia, the talismanic Napoli winger known as “Kvaradona” to its fans, was watching from the sidelines after being substituted off in the second half of extra time.
Georgia will be a low-ranked outsider in the 24-team Euro 2024 lineup in Germany going into Group F with Portugal, Türkiye and the Czech Republic.
It was Georgia’s eighth attempt to qualify for the European Championship as an independent nation since the Soviet Union broke up.
Georgian players from Dinamo Tbilisi were key to a high class Soviet Union team that went to the 1982 World Cup.
At Euro 2024, Georgia will start against Türkiye on June 18 in Dortmund, then play the Czechs on June 22 in Hamburg, and finish against Cristiano Ronaldo’s Portugal on June 26 in Gelsenkirchen, at the home stadium of Schalke.
In playoff finals later Tuesday, Wales was hosting Poland and Ukraine was playing Iceland with places at Euro 2024 at stake. Ukraine was the “home” team in Wroclaw, Poland, for security reasons during the Russian military invasion.
This man met his loss with dignity. Unlike the Luxembourg cringe coach. Respect.
he took over a terrible program and turned it around. but this is a "results" business. Too many small guys that are not good in the air and get pushed off the ball. We are not Spain or some other "tiki taka" type group of players. This game we came out with too much respect for Georgia - we came out passively, not aggressively and did not put our stamp on the game.

How many euros do you have😂???
@@y.p.9797 The main thing is that we are now. You Greeks don't 🤣🤣🤣🤣
@ilariuss7972 your best player said you were lucky and won. Go and look at his statement. You came here for toxicity, right? Guess what? You won't have that much luck and especially now in the euro. Still, greece has one euro, and Georgia, along with England, has 0.
