    Guys, don't sleep on Ukraine.

    It seems pretty much everybody is on Germany, but I don't think it's going to be that easy. Ukraine has super skillfull trio Konoplyanka-Kovalenko-Yarmolenko, playing behind the striker. They have ability to create a lot of problems to german defense.
    And Germany is starting with a weird looking lineup, having Goetze playing out of his natural position, at striker.

    I kinda like Ukraine o0.5@-115. But let's see what happens, Germany is still Germany and friendlies do not usually translate into real results. Also, Konoplyanka is a big-time choker. Sevilla did not play him that much in important matches.

    I'm on Ukraine +1. They almost scored twice in the first half. Boateng (German) kicked the ball out just as it passed on the goal line but not over so it was no goal. Then a few plays later Ukraine kicked one over but was ruled offside.

    I believe they take confidence in this into the second half.

    There will be another goal here. Fantastic keepers for both sides but it's going to get really all or nothing in the last 10-15 minutes of the game

    Very surprised at how well Ukraine matched up to Germany. It opens possibilities for their game against Poland and the 1.62 on them to beat Northern Ireland is looking like value now.

    Germany's second goal was very similar to how Ukraine scored on Slovenia in the playoffs leading up to this tournament. Do not sleep on the OVERS in matches such as Ukraine-Northern Ireland, where losing automatically sends you home. Even a very defensive-minded team will send not ten but eleven men in the opponent's box during a free-kick or a corner in that situation.

    Cumulative chances of scoring or getting scored on during those last minutes of the game increase manyfold...
