GROUP C – UKRAINE

Ukraine qualified for their third successive European Championship by surprisingly winning their qualifying group ahead of Portugal. They didn’t lose a single game while conceding as few as four goals.

The Ukrainians bowed out of the group stage in their past two appearances. However, in 2012, they won a game unlike in 2016 when they were the only team not to get a single point.
