We are now a full week into Euro 2024, and the tournament continues to serve up plenty of entertainment – sometimes in the places fans least expect.
While there was nothing to separate the Netherlands and France in a dour goalless draw on Friday, Austria put on a show in Group D s other match, eliminating Poland with a 3-1 win.
Earlier on, there were emotional scenes as Ukraine claimed their first major tournament win since Euro 2020, fighting back to beat Slovakia 2-1 in Group C.
There was also plenty more happening away from the pitch, and we run through the best of the day s content here, in our social media round-up.
Tears of joy for Ukraine
Ukraine s first game at the tournament fell flat as they were thrashed 3-0 by Romania, and they were staring at an early exit when they went 1-0 down to Slovakia on Friday.
However, second-half goals from Mykola Shaparenko and Roman Yaremchuk turned the game on its head, throwing up the prospect of all four Group E teams entering the final matchday on three points.
It was an understandably emotional occasion for Ukraine and for winning goalscorer Yaremchuk, who was pictured in tears at the full-time whistle.

Heartbreak for Tierney
From ecstasy to agony. Friday began with the news that Scotland full-back Kieran Tierney would miss the remainder of the tournament with the hamstring injury he sustained against Switzerland earlier this week.
Taking to Instagram, Tierney said he was heartbroken after it was confirmed he would return to Arsenal for tests.
Scotland will be hoping to give him something to cheer on Sunday, when a victory over Hungary would likely book a last-16 place.
