How the game unfolded
Benjamin Sesko had the first half-chance of the game as the RB Leipzig striker sent a tame header towards Jordan Pickford inside the opening five minutes.
It was an uninspiring start from England, who had to wait until the 20th minute to even have their first shot. That effort did, however, result in Bukayo Saka tapping the ball into the back of the net, only for an offside flag to correctly rule the goal out.
England's first official shots came on the half-hour mark. Harry Kane saw an effort blocked before a long-distance strike - the Three Lions' first on target - was comfortably scooped up by Jan Oblak in the Slovenia net.
Kieran Trippier's cross looked destined to lead to the opening goal, but Conor Gallagher failed to make contact with his head, before Kane's outstretched boot could not steer the ball towards goal as England headed into the half-time break with the scores tied.
England were slightly brighter in the second half - they could hardly have been more uninspiring - but, aside from a goalmouth scramble, still found it hard to get through to Oblak's goal.
England finished top of Group C at Euro 2024 thanks to a difficult 0-0 draw with Slovenia on Tuesday evening.
Gareth Southgate's side were expected to come out ahead of Slovenia, Denmark and Serbia and they did end up getting the job done, unconvincing performances left them needing a result on the final matchday to seal top spot.
Their goalless draw with Slovenia was hardly inspiring but, with Denmark also falling to a stalemate with Serbia, the Three Lions ended up top of Group C with five points from three games.
Denmark finish second in the group, while Slovenia face an anxious wait to see whether their three points will be enough to earn a spot in the next round of the competition.
Results elsewhere mean England remain on the opposite side of the draw to heavyweights Spain, Germany, France and Portugal, but there remain a handful of tricky opponents waiting for England in the next round of Euro 2024.
Who will England face in the last 16?
As group winners, England's reward is a round-of-16 clash with a team who finished third in another group.
While final confirmation of their opponents is not yet possible, England are expected to take on the Netherlands, who surprisingly finished third in Group D behind France and shock winners Austria.
Slovakia, Romania, Turkey and Czechia are all potential opponents and each would likely appeal more than Ronald Koeman's Dutch outfit, whose surprise defeat to Austria earlier in the day makes them a formidable opponents in the next round.
