Ireland could have got Switzerland and Israel or Denmark and Finland; instead they will play against the Netherlands and France. Here our report from the draw – cheers for your company! Most of the home nations will be happy with the draw. But it was a stinker for the Republic of Ireland, who are in with France, the Netherlands and Greece. With that, good luck.

Spain Group B Netherlands Group C Italy Group D Croatia Group E Poland Group F Belgium Group G Hungary Group H Denmark Group I Switzerland Group J Portugal It’s almost time for the actual draw. Woo and indeed hoo. “If you’ll allow me to be the negative to your positive,” says Ian Copestake, “Klinsmann’s time in the UK was a flop ... because he single-handedly introduced diving into our football!” “No list of underrated players is complete without Ian Crook,” says Phil Withall. “Already disadvantaged by playing for Norwich, he was unfortunate to play in a time when England had a plethora of world-class midfielders. The man was a bridesmaid that should have been the bride...” “I offered to host the draw at my gaff in Frankfurt but the messages were not returned,” weeps Ian Copestake. “I think offering to be Jake the Poacher to their various pots may not have translated well.” Jurgen Klinsmann and Karl-Heinz Riedle at next on stage, which is a good excuse to remind ourselves what a magnificent striker Klinsmann was. Gianluca Zambrotta and Demetrio Albertini, who are helping with the draw, have just strolled onto the stage carrying the European Championship trophy. Albertini is a decent contender for The Joy of Six: underrated players. Now it’s time for a Euro 2020/1 montage. As I type, Paul Pogba has just scored a beauty to put France 3-1 up against Switzerland. They’ll play Spain in the quarter-finals. The German singer Lena is on stage, singing Looking for Love. I’m not sure I have anything to add to this. PreambleHello and welcome to live coverage of the Euro 2024 qualifying draw in Frankfurt. You know the drill: an interminable preamble – no, not this one - and then a load of balls. Aptly enough, Euro 2024 will have 24 teams (Euro 2072 is going to be a riot), and this is how they will be decided.
