Group:

Friday, June 15, 2012 v France

Tuesday, June 19, 2012 v England



Prediction Group Stage:



Ukraine has a very tough task if they want to finish anywhere but under Group D. Having a home support behind them and the experience of Shevchenko and Tymoshchuk may be the only chance they scratch up the quarter-finals. Ukraine hopes that France will give performance similar to Euro 2008 and World Cup 2010 campaign and once again struggled on the international main stage, but even that may not be enough for the people of Eastern Europe. Ukraine has a tendency to recognize a large number of objectives, and with strength in depth than any other side in the group, It's unlikely they will attack strong enough to offset the weakness of their defense.
