Slovakia and Ukraine They are tied at one on the second day of the group stage of Group E of Euro 2024.
Serhiy Rebrov has decided to leave Andriy Lunin on the bench, after his poor performance on the first day, and Girona footballer, Viktor Tsygankov. Ukraine’s start was similar to the match against Romania, taking the initiative with the ball, but without generating clear dangerous chances.
After several warnings, after eighteen minutes of play, Slovakia put the score at one to zero. It was after a long throw-in to the far post, where Schranz was, who headed the ball into Trubin’s goal. It is the Slovakian footballer’s second goal in Euro 2024, after scoring the winning goal against Belgium on the first day.
Ukraine plugs in and Shaparenko lights the spark
Just after half-time, one of the greatest Ukrainian talents, Shaparenko, appeared at the penalty spot to beat the Slovakian goalkeeper with a low shot and equalize the score. It is Ukraine’s first goal in the entire Euro 2024 after failing to score against Romania.
Following the tying goal, there was a notable improvement from Ukraine, which began to suffocate Slovakia, which was beginning to suffer from repeated efforts in defense. There was dominance, but no clear scoring chances.
Yaremchuk dynamites Group E
With less than a quarter of an hour remaining, Yaremchuk gave Ukraine the lead. A ball rained down in the Slovakian area, which the footballer who has played this season for Valencia lowered with his toe to delicately beat Dubravka.
