Hamburg: Georgia trapped the Czech Republic in a draw and earned its first-ever point in a major tournament on Saturday afternoon in the Euro Cup 2024 match between the two at Volksparkstadion here.
Video reviews were in the spotlight as the Czechs had a goal for Adam Hlozek disallowed for hand ball, the Associated Press reported.
However, the draw result both conceived has put them into a tricky spot, Agence France-Presse reported.
Georgia, the only team making its debut at Euro 2024, then took the lead with a Georges Mikautadze penalty given for hand ball by Czech defender Robin Hranec.
The Czech team got back into the game when a header rebounded off the post, and Patrik Schick scored with his chest. Schick went off with a calf injury soon after.
Georgia could have won, but Saba Lobjanidze shot narrowly over the bar with the last kick of the game on a counterattack.
The draw means that both teams almost certainly require a win in their last group games to qualify for the knockout stages.
Turkey and Portugal are the other two teams in Group F, and they will meet later tonight.
