Euro 2020: Ukrainians Snatch Qualification In Extra Time

Must Read

Ukraine has secured its ticket for the quarterfinals after not having gone beyond the first round in its first two participations in the Euro in 2012 and 2016 as it beat Sweden (2-1) last night. Ukraine will meet England in Rome this Saturday, July 3.

For the fourth time in these round of 16, we had to play more than 90 minutes to determine the opponent of England in Rome this Saturday, July 3. And we just avoided a long penalty shootout as the day before during the incredible France-Switzerland to complete the table of the quarterfinals.

We almost had to wait for the opening of the score by Zinchenko at the 27th to put some life in this match. Despite the presence of Kulusevski (two assists as a wild card against Poland) alongside Isak, it was the inevitable Forsberg who put Sweden back in the game with his 4th goal of the tournament shortly before the break. In response to Sydorchuk’s 55th minute post, the RB Leipzig man (renamed “Torsberg” on the Bundesliga’s Twitter account) could have been the best striker of the tournament had he not also hit the target with two of his attempts (56th and 69th). Kulusevski almost saved the Swedes from extra time, but he was no more successful than Thomas Muller a few hours earlier at Wembley.
