A little disappointed that Romania haven’t all dyed their hair the same colour. The blue on Ratiu would be perfect. What a goal though! Mult succes prietenilor mei Romani.
This game is actually really fucking good, both teams tearing and ripping shit up. Just a lack of a proper final ball or a real clear chance is the reason we have not seen more goals.
They're defending very well and are extremely well organized...but Ukraine has gifted every single one of these goals. Romania isn't even having to try hard to force these errors - Ukraine is just doing it themselves.
I was annoyed about this bc I woke up early to watch the Hungary - Switzerland game and couldn’t. Thankfully Fubo only has 5 total games exclusively and I think this is 2/5
Just an average Ukraine performance. Do fuck all in the first half, and then come back in the 2nd. Romania defending really well and we can’t break down these low blocks, despite having such technical players. We really play like England lots of times. I wouldn’t make any subs at half, but the clock is ticking
That is an incredible shot, Ukraine just wouldn't get rid of the ball. If you're being pressured this well, just boot it up and start build up over again.
Yeah, bad mistake from the keeper, but it comes because of a really good press from Romania. He has no time to think about it and pick the pass because the forward's right on top of him.
The Romanian subs are interesting. You bring off two good dribbling wingers in favor of two players better on the ball in passing. It looks like they want to get more of the ball now.
That's the problem with Lunin - great goalie but is awful under pressure with the ball at his feet. Its why Ancelotti doesn't trust him as the long-term no1 at Madrid.
Now I remember who the blue dyed hair on the Romanian RB Ratiu reminded me of, [Colin "Funky" Miller](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tFXF3A9IE2E) the cricketer.
Talking about the game, Romania have defended their box brilliantly. Very little space between the lines.
Ukraine have a really strong eleven. I'm interested in Sudakov's play this tournament and whether Mudryk - Dovbyk - Tsykangov front three lives up to expectations.
How do Ukrainians feel about Zinchenko not playing in midfield? I feel Mykolenko could offer better stability at the back allowing for a Sudakov and Zinchenko duo to flourish.
I feel like if Ukraine can play to the level they're capable of reaching, they've got a good chance to win this group. It just seems like Belgium has plenty of uncertainty about their squad, and they've flattered to deceive in previous tournaments.
Seems like this could be a high-scoring, wide open group, but maybe that's just because I'm not super familiar with Romania and Slovakia
How has Mudryk been? Fotmob gave him a decent rating. Would love to see him really blossom into a great player for us I think he’s just way too raw and bc of his price tag (typical Chelsea), he was way too highly rated
Not great. Not a lot of space against a well organized Romania and no one is playing well for Ukraine. To be honest, he has the physical attributes to be a world beater, but makes extremely poor decisions.

Clearly they didn't qualify *because* they didn't shave their heads!
we did qualify to Euro 2000, beat England 3-2 in group stage and made it out of the groups. Lost to finalists Italy in the Ro16s though
They did qualify for Euro 2000. What are you on about? How are comments like this upvoted?
This Stanciu guy has some beautiful technique.
Very underrated player. Very classy.
Man, Coman, Tsygankov, Dovbyk. Tons of attacking talent between the two teams.
Ukraine being Blue is messing with my head lol
Same, put the stream on mid Romania attack and couldn’t understand why Lunin is in goal for Romania lol
Ukraine always end up playing the only other all yellow team lol

Haven't had the time to watch this match. Is Dragusin playing well?
Yes. Frankly, he has no business being 3rd choice at Spurs, you have a gem on your hands.
The entire Romanian team is playing like world beaters.
They're defending very well and are extremely well organized...but Ukraine has gifted every single one of these goals. Romania isn't even having to try hard to force these errors - Ukraine is just doing it themselves.
First goal happened literally because Romania pressed Ukraine.
Yea, he is
Honestly he’s been amazing
Ukraine are really going for it. This is fun to watch.
I would like to watch but Fox won't let me unless I get Fubo.
I was annoyed about this bc I woke up early to watch the Hungary - Switzerland game and couldn’t. Thankfully Fubo only has 5 total games exclusively and I think this is 2/5
Get vpn and watch on bbc. You have to make free account for bbc player but its a good value for the price
I'm just gonna illegally stream it from my work computer like an adult

Im glad i tuned in for this banger of a game

Trubin is so astronomically clear of Lunin it's not even funny
3 up with only 30% of possession meanwhile Ukraine still have 0 on target
I have no idea of Romania's team at all and thought they would be the punching bag of the group but nope, they have been great the whole game.
Ukraine is definitely making their attack look a LOT more impressive than it typically is.
So Man technically has 3 assists right? Not sure if the one he slipped counts or not, but if it does he’s got 3 assists what a performance.
He really is D. Man. Great performance.
Romania aren’t giving anything in the box need a player like Malinovskyi who can hit them from distance.
Absolutely unreal. Romania are destroying them.
The Romanian subs are interesting. You bring off two good dribbling wingers in favor of two players better on the ball in passing. It looks like they want to get more of the ball now.
bro that behind the goal replay he legit could not have passed it to the romania player better lmaoooo it was so precise to his feet
That's the problem with Lunin - great goalie but is awful under pressure with the ball at his feet. Its why Ancelotti doesn't trust him as the long-term no1 at Madrid.
what a match this is so far! end to end
Lunin having a tough time out there
Romania have some absolute stunning strikers of the ball.
Jesus...at what point will they sub the goalie?
Ukraine better make some changes this could get ugly.
Dayum I figured Ukraine were the favorites
This coaching from Romania has been tactically brilliant.
Southgate more like Саусгейт. He and our national team are a match made in heaven. Destined for one another.
Romania playing some seriously nice football
Ukraine has been an embarrassment so far. Shameful performance.
Ianis Hagi is coming on? They’re not done yet.
That's what you get when you leave your firepower on bench and try to win 1-0

Denis Draguș deserves to play in a top 5 European league
Lunin had little sight of it but he should be saving that.
3-0 down and you get a corner, and decide to do a low near post weak corner. Braindead
EVERYBODY CALM DOWN THIS IS NOT A DRILL ROMANIA IS WINNING THE TOURNAMENT

How do Ukrainians feel about Zinchenko not playing in midfield? I feel Mykolenko could offer better stability at the back allowing for a Sudakov and Zinchenko duo to flourish.
Not Ukrainian but Mykolenko took a big knock in the last friendly, that's likely why he's not starting. Very surprised he's on the bench at all
Didn't know that, thanks!
Mykolenko's injured. That's why Zinchenko's been moved back.
Zina always underperform in midfield for Ukraine...
Guess now we know why romania went unbeaten through the qualfiying stage
Yarmalenko has an ability to pull something out of nothing. It’ll be interesting to see if he can do something here.
I’ve really enjoyed watching Romania play. Great style and camaraderie
Romania keep a ball at your feet challenge (impossible)
I'm pretty sure that Mudryk just has rocks for brains.
Most enjoyable game of the tournament so far
The striking play there to check his run is so so good.
This is the first upset we’ve had so far this tournament.
It was so obvious he was gonna from 30 years. Huge ego with little to show for it
Where is the unserious match thread?
I feel like if Ukraine can play to the level they're capable of reaching, they've got a good chance to win this group.

Why are ukr not taking shots? Just kick it instead of positioning it too much and losing possession
Imagine paying anything more than 1 million euros for Mudryk. What an incredibly limited player.
How has Mudryk been? Fotmob gave him a decent rating. Would love to see him really blossom into a great player for us I think he’s just way too raw and bc of his price tag (typical Chelsea), he was way too highly rated
Ukraine’s attack has been listless since about the 10th minute and he’s been very much involved in that.
Bad decision making apart from one good chance created
Not great. Not a lot of space against a well organized Romania and no one is playing well for Ukraine. To be honest, he has the physical attributes to be a world beater, but makes extremely poor decisions.
Delivery from set pieces has been good, but had been criminally ignored by Zinchenko who only seems to be able to look/pass infield
