Considering most of this team haven't played or trained properly in months, with some of the players sleeping in basements, this has been a very polished display from Ukraine so far.

I very much doubt the Ukrainian players would want a "bye" to the Finals. If the last few months have shown anything, its that they are a fiercely proud nation who will fight to the end. They'll want to EARN qualification, not just have it gifted to them out of sympathy.
