Unfavorable Romania defeated Ukraine a strong performance in Munich to take the victory.
With a 3- 0 triumph in Group E's opening game, Romania delivered the first true surprise of Euro 2024 by causing a riot over Ukraine.
Romania opened the scoring with a fantastic first-half attack from Nicolae Stanciu, before Razvan Marin and Denis Dragus doubled earlier in the next quarter to put the outcome beyond doubt.
The opening weekend of Euro 2024 went almost completely to kind, with Germany, Spain, Italy, the Netherlands and England all winning their opening game. Slovenia's pick with Euro 2020 semi- finalists Denmark raised eyebrows, but Romania's big victory was the first truly crucial stunner.
Romania's pleasant victory over Ukraine defies anticipation
Romania qualified for the 1994 World Cup after going undefeated in their ten games ( six wins, four draws ) to qualify for their first major tournament since Euro 2016. Quarter-finalists at the 1994 World Cup and Euro 2000, memorably going through the group at England's expense in the latter case.
However, their party was regarded as one of the easier draws, and the nation came into the game as 200/1 strangers.
They had lost four immediately helpful activities without a triumph, including a goalless draw against Liechtenstein, which had limited their chances of getting there.

In Group D, Ukraine finished with 14 points, four victories, two draws, and two losses, drawing only their minimum "home" games against England and Italy but losing the apart games. This is similar to Italy's record, which they had similarly held.
Even at pre-tournament chances of 80/1, Ukraine were evens favourites to defeat Romania, making their future defeat a true coupon-buster.
In Monday's breakfast kick-off, Belgium does face Slovakia in the final round of Group E matches.
