Ukraine played a high-quality first half in the second match of the Olympics. They completely outplayed Morocco and deservedly took the lead after a goal by Dmytro Kryskiv. However, at the beginning of the second half, Volodymyr Salyuk let his team down, earning a red card and conceding a penalty.
Just when it seemed like everything was slipping away, substitute Ihor Krasnopir came through with a stunning winner in the 98th minute, keeping Ukraine’s hopes alive of advancing to the next round.
All teams have 3 points heading into the last round. Ukraine is considered an underdog, but after their last-minute victory against Morocco, they will be more confident and inspired.
After a surprising defeat in the first round against Morocco, Argentina needed nothing but win against Iraq. However, it was not an easy task for Javier Mascherano’s team. Iraq displayed resilience, but goals from Thiago Almada, Luciano Gondou and Ezequiel Fernandez sealed the deal for La Albiceleste.
Argentina’s defense is quite vulnerable, having already conceded three goals in two matches. Mascherano needs to tighten up his squad ahead of the crucial encounter.
To reach the quarterfinals, Argentina only need to avoid defeat. Though it might seem straightforward, the group has already produced some unexpected results.
Bet hereArgentina arrived at the 2024 Olympic Games as one of the main favourites of the tournament. La Albiceleste have assembled a highly capable squad with the potential to clinch another gold medal.
It was surprising that Javier Mascherano’s team lost against Morocco in their first game at Paris 2024. However, they bounced back impressively and now lead the group.
Even a draw in the upcoming game will be enough for Argentina to reach the playoffs, but they are unlikely to take risks. Given their superior squad, a bet on their victory seems a reasonable option.
All teams in Group D have shown a prolific performance in each match. All four previous games were rich in goals, with at least three goals scored in each encounter.
There shouldn’t be any issues with scoring in the upcoming match, either. Ukraine have scored and conceded 28 goals in their last nine matches (3.11 on average per game), which is a solid indicator of their attacking and defensive dynamics. At the same time, at least three goals were scored in seven out of these nine games.
Based on this, our Ukraine vs Argentina prediction suggests placing a bet on more than 2.5 goals. Furthermore, considering Argentina’s attacking prowess, an individual total of over 1.5 goals for Argentina is another viable pick.
