Ukraine vs Belgium: All-time head-to-head record | Euro 2024
The Red Devils bounced back from a defeat to secure 2-0 win over Romania last game.
Currently, because of their lower goal differential, Ukraine are at the bottom of the Euro 2024 Group E standings list.
Ivan Schranz scored for Slovakia in his second game, and Ukraine looked set to lose their Euro adventure early after already leaking three goals to Romania earlier, a miserable encounter that saw Real Madrid’s Andriy Lunin lose his spot in goal for matchday two.
But Mykola Shaparenko levelled the score with a cool finish after Oleksandr Zinchenko’s cross, and Roman Yaremchuk more than made up for it in the 80th minute with a superb touch and completely sealed the comeback. Yaremchuk had missed one great chance with an overhit pass to Mykhaylo Mudryk.
Romelu Lukaku, who has scored the most goals for Belgium has failed to score so far at Euro 2024, no matter how hard he tries. While the Red Devils’ shocking initial loss to Slovakia did not save his blushes, things were different on Saturday.
Youri Tielemans’ well-executed goal in the 2nd minute—the fastest goal the Belgian men’s team have ever scored at a major tournament—put Domenico Tedesco’s team ahead against Romania. Kevin De Bruyne scored the second goal after Koen Casteels’ punt ahead went all the way across.
Everyone exhaled with relief as De Bruyne effectively sealed Belgium’s crucial victory in Cologne.
If they win and Slovakia only draws or loses to Romania, they will take first position; but, if they lose and Romania earns at least a single point, they will be doomed to another miserable group-stage exit, repeating a similar fate at the 2022 World Cup.
Tedesco’s team should be hopeful that they can avoid suffering the same fate as they did in Qatar when they play Ukraine in a senior men’s international on Wednesday. The shocking Euro 2024 matchday 1 loss to Slovakia was their only defeat in their last 17 games across all competitions.
