Based on the FIFA Men's World Ranking, Slovakia's win was the biggest upset in UEFA European Championship history, with 45 places separating Belgium (3rd) and Slovakia (48th). This was short lived, however, since Georgia (74th) beat Portugal (6th) 2-0 on June 26 in Group F. 68 places separated Georgia and Portugal, beating the Belgium-Slovakia record by 23 places.

Fair play points would have been used as a tiebreaker if the head-to-head and overall records of teams had been tied (and if a penalty shoot-out was not applicable as a tiebreaker). These were calculated based on yellow and red cards received by players and team officials in all group matches as follows:

  • yellow card = 1 point
  • red card as a result of two yellow cards = 3 points
  • direct red card = 3 points
  • yellow card followed by direct red card = 4 points

Only one of the above deductions was applied to a player or team official in a single match.

  • Belgium at the UEFA European Championship

  • Romania at the UEFA European Championship

  • Slovakia at the UEFA European Championship

  • Ukraine at the UEFA European Championship

  • 1994 FIFA World Cup Group E – another group with a similar situation of all four teams scoring the exact same points at the end of group stage
