Watch the summary: Ukraine came back from behind to win 1:2 over Slovakia

by


Last March, Ukraine fell behind 1:0 against Bosnia in the semifinals of the Euro 2024 promotion playoffs, but made a late turnaround and won 1:2. Three days later, in the playoff final – the promotion game – Iceland went up 0:1, but the yellow-blues again became 1:2 with a goal by Mihajlo Modric in the 84th minute.

The spoken nature of the Ukrainians was not reflected in the 3:0 defeat to Ukraine, in which Sergey Rebrov’s players looked broken and helpless, but today (Friday), in a game of make or break for Ukraine, she returned to her favorite way. A 1:0 deficit against Slovakia and a late turnaround on the way to a 1:2 victory in the second round of Group 5 in Euro 2024. And how complicated Group 5 is now.

Slovakia started the game like a true favorite: with control of the ball and pace, smart ball movement, exploiting the opponent’s weaknesses and four quality situations. Anatoly Trubin started in the Ukrainian goal instead of Andrey Lunin, who was terrible against Romania – and proved his place in the lineup with important saves – but in Slovakia’s fourth chance, he didn’t save either.

It took the Ukrainians a few minutes to recover, but unlike the defeat against Romania, this time they did not break down and managed to get back into business. Until the end of the first half, they took the initiative, pressed and threatened, but were not accurate enough to equalize to 1:1. At the beginning of the second half, they already translated the advantage into equality, which calmed them down. In a situation of equality, the Ukrainians seemed full of confidence and the exchanges also proved themselves. Roman Yarmchuk scored in the 80th minute after a mistake by Martin Dobrevka and the Yellows collected three points.
