A defensive lapse separates two relatively poor teams, writes Andy Dillon.
An underhit back pass by Ukraine centre half Mykola Matvienko proved fatal after 21 minutes in warm temperatures – the first sign of real summer out here so far.
Real Madrid’s keeper Andriy Lunin was under pressure so pumped his clearance straight to winger Dennis Man.
His pass inside fell nicely to Romania striker and skipper Nicolae Stanciu to sweep a right foot, curling shot into the back of the net from outside the box.
It’s a rare moment of class from two sides not expected to trouble the scorers seriously at this Euros.
But it is stifling enough up here in the press box, in the direct sunlight 50 metres below it must be like Wimbledon’s windless Centre Court on a hot summer’s day.
