How Ukraine can reach Euro 2024 after Italy's victory in Round 9. All schedules
After Italy's victory over North Macedonia in the 9th round of the 2024 UEFA European Football Championship qualifiers, the Yellow and Blues have several options to make it to the final round of the tournament. Our compatriots have only one game left to play in the qualifiers, which will be decisive.
On Monday, November 20, Serhii Rebrov's team will play a nominally home match against the Italians. Before the match, which will take place in Leverkusen, Germany, the Ukrainians are third in Quintet C with 13 points. Italy is second, ahead of the Yellow and Blues in head-to-head meetings.
Ukraine needs only a victory on November 20 to overtake the Azzurri and take the final second place in the group. Before that, the teams had played 9 matches in their history, and Ukraine had never won.
However, even if Ukraine fails in this qualification, it will still have a chance to play at the European Championships through the League of Nations.
To do this, you will need to win the Nations League playoffs. To qualify for the playoffs, one of the following conditions must be met:
1. At least one team from the list must qualify for Euro 2024: Israel, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Serbia or Finland.
2. That 14 of the 15 participants of League A qualify for Euro 2024 (or 13, provided that at least one of the above teams leaves League B).
Serbia has the most realistic chances to qualify for Euro 2024. The national team is in second place, 3 points behind Montenegro. On November 19, the Serbs will play Bulgaria, the group outsider. To reach the final part of the European Championship, they only need not to lose.
