England vs Ukraine Live Streaming Euro 2012 Group D

Watch Euro 2012 England vs Ukraine Live Streaming

Match Schedule: June 19, 2012 7:45 PM BST
Donbass Arena — Donets'k
Referee:‬ V. Kassai‎
Roy Hodgson: "It's not just England who haven't always performed when the expectations were heightened. There's quite a few teams that have failed. It's a fact of life. We've come here with the England national team. We believe in ourselves and we want to do well. In some ways it's rather nice that people back home are hoping and even believing we can do well, and we're giving them something to dream about and cling onto." (Yahoo)
England's key player: Wayne Rooney. England will welcome back their star man in less of a pressure situation than might have been the case had Theo Walcott not instigated a dramatic comeback against Sweden. Rooney will not need to inspire the Three Lions to victory against Ukraine but Roy Hodgson will expect to see a more cohesive team performance with the Manchester United forward linking the play in front of the midfield. Walcott made a real difference to the fluidity of England's counterattacks and Rooney can make the same impact on Tuesday.
Andriy Shevchenko
Ukraine's Player to Watch: Andriy Shevchenko. Oleg Blokhin will be hoping desperately that his captain can recover in time to face England and extend his international career by at least one more game by leading them to three points and a place in the quarter-final. Shevchenko is responsible for giving Ukraine a chance going into the final group fixture, brilliantly bagging two goals against Sweden, and he will need to dig even deeper into his energy reserves in order to topple England.

England vs Ukraine Probable Line Up:
England: Hart, Johnson, Terry, Lescott, Cole, Gerrard, Parker, Walcott, Rooney, Young, Welbeck
Ukraine: Pyatov, Husyev, Mikhalik, Khacheridi, Selin, Tymoshchuk, Yarmolenko, Nazarenko, Konoplyanka, Voronin, Shevchenko

England vs Ukraine Prediction: England need only a draw to seal their place in the quarter-final and that will suit them down to the ground. Roy Hodgson's team have looked at their most secure when they put organisation and discipline first, as they did against France, and the experienced coach will be keen to put the emphasis back on those characteristics after a tumultuous second half, much of which he will not have enjoyed, against Sweden.(Goal)

Donbass Arena — Donets'k
Referee:‬ B. Kuipers‎‎‎
Andriy Shevchenko has netted four of Ukraine’s seven goals at EURO and World Cup finals, three of these goals were headed. In his last four appearances for France, Franck RibĂ©ry has scored three goals and set up another two.(Yahoo)
Ukraine's key player: Anatoliy Tymoshchuk. The 33-year-old will be familiar with many of the French top-class names, such as Franck Ribery and Karim Benzema, after playing either alongside or against them, with Bayern Munich. He must remain switched on at all times with Les Bleus' flair men dropping into pockets of space all over the field. What the veteran now lacks in pace, will need to be made up with each ounce of his positioning, organisation and intelligence.


Samir Nasri
France's Player to Watch: Samir Nasri. The former Arsenal man will therefore want to continue to let his football do the talking, with an unproven defence the perfect opportunity to do so against. However, he must not become arrogant or selfish with the ball, as that will only bring the whole team performance down, and turn and already overwhelmingly unfavourable crowd even more against him.

Ukraine vs France Probable Line Up:
Ukraine: Pyatov, Husyev, Khacheridi, Mykhalyk, Selin, Tymoschchuck, Rotan, Nazarenko, Konoplyanka, Yarmolenko Voronin
France: Lloris, Debuchy, Rami, Mexes, Evra, Cabaye, M'Vila, Malouda, Nasri, Benzema, Ribery

Ukraine vs France Euro 2012 Prediction
France will be looking to win this game without too much trouble. However, it is easy to forget that it's Ukraine that currently top Group D. The co-hosts were more than delighted to have won their first game, but don't be fooled - expectation on Blokhin and his men is high, and they will want to win. Expect Ukraine to be stubborn to break down, and to work extremely hard for their cause, but France know how important three points will be. Laurent Blanc's men should win, not overwhelmingly, but comfortably.(Goal.com)
