Ukraine, having been forced to settle for third place in their qualification pool due to a lower goal margin compared to Italy, now confronts the playoff challenge. They must surpass two more obstacles to secure their position in the EURO finals in Germany.

Earlier this week, they overcame the first obstacle on their journey to the goal by staging an incredible late comeback to secure a 2-1 win over Bosnia and Herzegovina in Zenica. This was all thanks to Roman Yaremchuk’s heroics, who equalized the score in the 85th minute and then, three minutes later, assisted Artem Dovbyk in scoring the winning goal.

Serhiy Rebrov and his high-performing team are just 90 minutes away from their fourth consecutive continental clash. They are full of confidence as they focus on their goal, having achieved a dramatic last-minute victory against Bosnia and Herzegovina. This marked their third win in their last four competitive matches.

Despite finishing fourth in the qualifying cycle and an incredible 12 points behind the automatic slots, Iceland’s national squad has been given an opportunity to fight for a spot in the final tournament in Germany, under unusual circumstances.

Aware of the chance before them, Age Hareide’s team successfully took advantage of the moment, swiftly advancing to the Euros playoff final. This followed a commanding 4-1 win over a 10-man Israeli team at the neutral Szusza Ferenc Stadium. The Skyblue and Whites were unable to host owing to the nation’s current conflicts.

Despite delivering their best performance under Age Hareide’s leadership, the Icelanders are not excited about being the visiting team. Their recent away games have not inspired confidence, as they have lost four of their last six competitive matches and conceded an average of two goals per game during those outings.

Although Ukraine cannot enjoy the comfort of playing in their conflict-ridden homeland, they are favored to win the final of Path B. However, predicting an easy victory is challenging, particularly given Iceland’s aggressive approach following their four-goal annihilation of Israel.

Given the red-hot form of the strikers from both sides, fans can expect an exhilarating and high-scoring clash, yet it’s Dovbyk and his co who are poised to sail to a win that will catapult them into this year’s final in Germany.
