The Ukrainian national football team will start at Euro 2024 in Germany as early as this month. This will be the first big tournament for Serhiy Rebrov as Ukraine's coach. Find out where, when and with whom the Ukrainian team will play
The long-awaited European Football Championship starts on 14 June in Germany. The Ukrainian national team has managed to qualify for the tournament, which means that fans will see at least three games of their team at the Euros. Here's a look at when, where and with whom Serhii Rebrov's men will play.
Ukraine's group
The draw determined that in Group E, in addition to Ukraine, Belgium, Slovakia and Romania were in Group E.
Speaking about the teams that the Ukrainians have been drawn with, it can be noted that none of these teams is an outsider or a weak link in the group. All the members of the E quartet are known for their selection of quality players.
The clear favourite of the Ukrainian group is Belgium, which until recently was the leader in the European national team rankings. This team is represented by world-class players such as Kevin De Bruyne, Thibaut Courtois, Jérémy Dock and others.
However, despite the ratings and other mathematical calculations, Serhii Rebrov's team can compete for the play-offs.
