Ukraine are a technically superior side and should scrape through against this rather ordinary Swiss team.

I watched Ukraine a bit in qualifying as they were in Denmark's group.

They easily won that group in front of Turkey (who incidently was knocked out by Switzerland in the playoff game) and Denmark. They seemed really solid.

May the team better at falling down and rolling around on the ground win.

Hope you are right. There's an uneveness in the quality of the technical play of Ukraine and all the forced changes in the defense is tough in an elimination.

Hoping you still prove out here.
