This is the second
round group stage match for Group D teams where co-host of Euro 2012, Ukraine
will play against France on June 15, 2012 at Donbass Arena, Donetsk. The
match has been scheduled at 17.00 hours GMT. This match to be played in home
soil appears to be an additional advantage for Ukraine who are already one step
ahead in their group after completing the first round match with a winning
score line whereas for France, this is a crucial match for them to call for a
victory to inch their position in this tournament.
In their last match
against Sweden, Ukraine gave a surprise victory to their excited home crowd
when they defeated their opponent in 2-1. The star of the match Andriy
Shevchenko turned the to their side in just seven minutes and now they are
heading for two wins of two matches to qualify in the final eight from Group D.
So, the Ukraine supporters are looking for more surprises from their home team
to get the flavor of championship title for the first time. Swedish attack
rarely succeeded in upsetting Ukraine team but compared to Sweden, France is a
stronger rival to get over. The other two stars of the last match, Tymoshchuk
and Konoplyanka will surely create a good trouble for French battalion and that
will turn into a tough fight for both the teams because French squad has been
groomed well to maintain their reign in the field.
After giving an
impressive 90 minutes performance, France ended their first match in Euro 2012
in 1-1 against England. This draw match has set back their position one step
behind their group member, Ukraine. So in this coming match against Ukraine, they are ready to call for a
win with their in-form team. Coach Laurent Blanc prepared a balanced team for
this tournament, especially the midfield form. The midfielders easily
interchange their positions in an unnoticed way which is an easy way of
upsetting the rival. What they missed in the last match was maintaining a
consistency in the defense side. In a few occasions, the defense became dormant
which made an unrestricted way for England to level the game. But Ukraine's
performance in the last day has already started to blaze the other group teams
and France is quite aware of that because repetition of same mistakes will lead
their brilliant team out of the tournament.
Based on their
earlier encounters, France is a favorite but in this tournament, Ukraine has
appeared as a well groomed and balanced team to take away any match to their
side. However, according to the bookies like Paddy Power, Tower and Triobet,
the odds for Ukraine's win is 5/2 and Bet365 and Bodog are offering 11/4 and
