Futsal EURO main round line-up complete

All seven UEFA Futsal EURO 2018 preliminary round groups have been decided, with Georgia, Moldova, Latvia, Albania, Denmark, France and Montenegro through to join the top seeds in April's main round.

Denmark were the last country to qualify. Having defeated debutants Kosovo 2-1 earlier on Thursday, the Nordic side were confirmed as Group E winners ahead of their opponents on direct head-to-head by Cyprus's failure to overcome Norway. They progress to main round Group 6 in Kazakhstan.

Among the earlier successes were Albania making it through a round for the first time and Moldova earning a berth in a main round group hosted by holders Spain. Latvia topped Group C but were held 3-3 by Kosovo's fellow newcomers Germany, who scored three late goals to draw before beating Estonia 5-4 in their last game.
