Ukraine’s Tough Start at Euro 2024: How They Can Survive Group E

Ukraine faced a tough start at Euro 2024 with a disappointing 3-0 defeat to Romania. Despite this setback, they still have a chance to advance from Group E, which is considered one of the weaker groups at the tournament. With Romania and Slovakia as their fellow group members, Ukraine are expected to have a decent chance of progressing to the knockout stages. However, Belgium poses a challenge that will be crucial for their chances of advancing further in the tournament.

In the first matchweek of the group stage, Ukraine will face Romania again. They have a relatively even record against each other with three wins each and one draw. The matches between these two sides have seen plenty of goals, with 24 goals in just six games. This game will be important for Ukraine’s chances of making it to the knockout stages.

In the second matchweek, Ukraine will take on Slovakia again, whom they have faced five times in the past nine years. These games have resulted in two wins for each side and a goalless draw in a European Championships qualifier in 2015. This game will also be crucial for Ukraine’s chances of advancing further in the tournament as they need to win both matches against Slovakia to stand any chance of progressing.

The final matchweek of the group stage will see Ukraine facing Belgium for the first time in history. This match will be crucial for Ukraine’s chances of advancing further in the tournament as they need to win this match to stand any chance of making it to the knockout stages after losing their first match against Romania. Despite facing tough competition from Romania and Belgium, Ukraine still has a chance to advance from Group E if they can win their remaining matches against Slovakia and Belgium respectively
