UKR vs ENG: In the final quarterfinals game of the European Championship 2020, Ukraine are set to go head to head with England. Both sides will meet at Stadio Olimpico to decide their fortunes in Euro 2020. After thrashing Germany in the “Round of 16”, England are sensing an opportunity to win the title in 2021.
Ukraine are fresh off a famous injury-time winner against Sweden in the Round of 16. When the game seemed to go into the penalties, a miracle happened and Ukraine scored in the injury time of the extra time. They will look to put up a resilient show against England at Stadio Olimpico on Sunday.
England have a robust defense and are yet to concede a goal in the tournament. They might have scored a few goals but have conceded none. Gareth Southgate will look to field the strong line-up to seal the deal early against Ukraine.
