Shkodran Mustafi and Bastian Schweinsteiger were on target as world champions Germany defeated Ukraine 2-0 in their Euro 2016 Group C opener on Sunday (June 12).The Germans, eyeing their fourth Euro title and their first since 1996, opened the scoring when central defender Mustafi, starting in place of the injured Mats Hummels, rose high to head in a pinpoint Toni Kroos free kick in the 19th minute.Joachim Loew’s men, who also lost central defender Antonio Ruediger to injury earlier this week, were far from convincing and had Jerome Boateng to thank for producing a stunning goalline clearance in the first half.
