Romania swept aside Ukraine 3-0 in the opening game of Group E at Euro 2024 with captain Nicolae Stanciu scoring a goal of the tournament contender in Munich.
Edward Iordanescu's side came into this competition with a reputation for lacking goals - with just 16 scored in 10 qualifying games - but they managed three on a memorable afternoon in Bavaria.
Stanciu opened the scoring in stunning fashion as he capitalised on the first of two mistakes from Real Madrid goalkeeper Andriy Lunin to curl a delicious finish from 25 yards in off the underside of the bar (29).
Lunin had looked to play out from the back - and the Ukraine No 1 was again culpable for Romania's second when he allowed Razvan Marin's speculative shot to veer underneath his body (53) not long after the interval.
