UKRAINE
Ukraine’s performance in their last match saw them suffer a 1-2 loss against Iraq. The team has been struggling recently, with no wins in their last 5 matches across all competitions. The coach will need to rally the players to put up a strong fight against Morocco to turn their fortunes around.
Rotan has undeniably showcased his ability to uplift the Ukrainian squad, steering them to a remarkable semi-final finish at last year’s UEFA European Under-21 Championship and clinching victory at the Maurice Revello tournament earlier this summer. With fans passionately backing their team, there’s hope that the recent setback against Iraq is merely a temporary glitch. The focus now shifts to rekindling the form that propelled Ukraine through an impressive eight-game unbeaten streak (W6, D2) before that defeat.
MOROCCO
Morocco, on the other hand, is coming off a 2-1 win against Argentina in their last match. The team has shown promising form with a win in their most recent outing. With a solid performance in their last 5 matches, they will be looking to continue their winning streak against Ukraine. The coach will be hoping for a repeat of their previous success.
Morocco’s last seven Olympic matches have been tightly contested, with no game ending by a margin of two or more goals. This statistic highlights the challenges Morocco has faced on this grand stage; however, they now find themselves with an exciting opportunity to advance to the next round for the first time since their memorable appearance in Munich in 1972. With a historic chance at hand, Morocco must harness its determination and skill to excel against formidable opponents and make a mark in Olympic history.
