Romania-Ukraine: An early… final for the knockouts

by

Duel Romania and Ukrainian in Munich.

The team of Eduard Iordanescu (son of Angel) and that of Sergei Rembroff face off at 16:00 (ΕΟΤ1, sport-fm.gr, bwinСПОР FM 94.6) at the stadium of Bayern Munich (or Munich Arena) in the context of the 5 group of Euro 2024.

A realistic goal for both teams is to “beat” her 2nd place (otherwise one of the four best thirds), since the first is logically captured by Belgium. So, the result of this match will decide a lot about the future of the two teams in the competition.

THE Romania overcame the qualifiers, leaving Switzerland 2nd, and is looking to surprise again, as it is presented as 3rd favorite in the group. Of course, she will have to overcome herself. Because she has not presented anything special in her participation in the finals of the event, with the exception of 2000 euro. Where they reached the quarter-finals and scored their only win that summer, beating England 3-2 in the final group match.

Returns to pan-European championship after 2016, as he had failed to qualify for the 2020 finals, when he finished 4th under pressure from Spain, Sweden and Norway. He then only managed to finish over the Faroe Islands and Malta.

Theoretically, the Ukraine has the best chance after Belgium to get the second ticket for the knockouts. Because of its quality, having players like Lunin, Zinchenko, Chigankov, Mudrik and Dovbik. This is her fourth consecutive appearance in the finals, but this is the most special after what the nation has gone through and is going through, which remains in a state of war. They came 3rd in the qualifiers, finishing behind England and Italy, but took advantage of their second chance in the play-offs, knocking out Bosnia and Iceland, winning both 2-1.

After all, it comes from her best course in the organization. After reaching the quarter-finals of Euro 2020 (held in 2021 due to Covid-19) and there he was eliminated by England, knowing the defeat by 4-0.

Romania does not face any particular problem, while Ukraine has a big issue. THE Mikolenko has an ankle problem and if it is deemed that he is unable to help, then his place will be taken by Zinchenko.
