Goal of the Tournament? Super-sub Roman Yaremchuk scores sublime effort as Ukraine complete dramatic Euro 2024 turnaround against Slovakia to leave Group E finely poised

Ukraine secured their first points of the campaign, but they had to come from behind after conceding in the 17th minute. Lukas Haraslin delivered a cross from the left that Ivan Schranz headed home for his second goal of the tournament.

Serhiy Rebrov’s side then began to assert themselves, Oleksandr Tymchyk clipping the post in the first half. Their pressure told shortly after the restart when Mykola Shaparenko steered home after being picked out by Zinchenko.

And with 10 minutes to go, substitute Roman Yaremchuk turned the game on its head with an outstanding finish, controlling Shaparenko’s lofted pass before tucking home, to complete the comeback.

Mykola Shaparenka: A goal and an assist from the Dynamo Kyiv midfielder, who stepped up when Ukraine needed someone – anyone – to do exactly that.

Francesco Calzona: It’s hard to be too harsh on the Slovakia coach, but the Italian might have some regrets as he watched his side sit deep after going ahead. It seemed as though Calzona was content to hold on for a point, which ultimately cost him and his players.

Slovakia, the lowest-ranked team in Group E, face Romania next and are still in with a chance of reaching the knockout rounds. Likewise Ukraine, who reignited their campaign and face Belgium on Wednesday.
