Morlock Stadium: Germany's preparations for Euro 2024 got off to a stuttering start as they were held to a frustrating 0-0 draw by Ukraine in a tightly contested friendly encounter at the Max-Morlock Stadium.

Missing several key players due to their recent Champions League exploits, Julian Nagelsmann's men struggled to convert their dominance into goals despite creating better chances.

Ukraine, also gearing up for the summer tournament, served a warning sign early on with Mykola Matviienko flashing a shot over the bar. Germany responded positively, controlling possession for much of the first half.
