Who are the BBC commentators for Slovakia v Ukraine at Euro 2024?

Steve Bower will provide his expert analysis from the commentary box, having done so across multiple platforms since the mid-1990s.

He began with Manchester United's in-house television service, MUTV, before branching out to work with broadcasters such as Setanta Sports, Sky Sports and is now mostly popular with the BBC.

Bower was involved with Match of the Day's coverage at the 2010, 2014, 2018, and 2022 FIFA World Cups and is instantly recognisable with footballing fans.

Martin Keown will join him in the commentary booth and has done so since his retirement back in 2012. The 57-year-old played largely for Arsenal throughout his career but also enjoyed later spells with Everton, Aston Villa and Reading.

Meanwhile, in the studio, Gabby Logan will be on presenting duties, as she looks ahead to what could be a vital game in Group E in Germany this afternoon.
