Group F is the pool of heavyweights featuring the reigning world champions France, current European champions Portugal and 2014 world champions Germany who are always there or thereabout. The three superpowers have not had things easy alongside a spirited Hungary outfit who have so far in this group stage refused be steamrolled by their illustrious opponents.
This has led to a tantalising prospect going into the final round of matches with three teams – Germany, Portugal and Hungary all having a chance of qualifying for the next round. France are through but there is still plenty to play for the world champions in terms of the group placings.
