The round of 16 have delivered their verdict and Ukraine is the last to qualify for the rest of the competition.
The Ukrainians took the advantage in the last moments of extra time against the Swedes reduced to ten (2-1).
Sweden enter their game perfectly at Hampden Park in Glasgow.
It dominates, presses high and leaves little exploitable space for its opponents.
Isak gets the first chance.
Alerted behind the defense, he was preceded by Buschnan who intervened with both fists (4th).
Back to back at the break
Ukraine eventually extricated itself from the grip.
Shaparenko takes his chance at the entrance to the area but it goes very far (10th).
Then, on the right, Yarmolenko crosses back and finds Yaremchuk, who strikes in first intention but sees Olsen pushing back the attempt (12th).
This Ukrainian highlight is followed by a Swedish highlight.
Isak is served at the entrance to the penalty area.
He tries to roll his shot which ends to the right of Buschan's cage (19th).
However, against the course of the game, it was Ukraine who opened the scoring.
Zinchenko, little seen since the start of the Euro, places a perfect cross half-volley.
Olsen can not do anything (27th, 1-0).
Sweden reacts quickly and gets a long free kick.
Larsson fakes the pass but ultimately chooses the shot.
Bushchan dives on his line and foils the attempt (29th).
On the other hand, he can not do anything a few moments later when Forsberg releases a powerful strike from 20 meters, countered by one of his defenders (43rd, 1-1).
Two consecutive posts
Upon returning from the locker room, the two teams will find the post in turn: Yarmolenko tumbles to the right of the opposing surface and goes back for Sydorchuk, whose recovery crashes on the Swedish left upright (55th).
Forsberg did the same a few moments later (57th).
He found the cross a few moments later (68th).
After these sequences of madness, the two teams seem to blame the blow. In lack of additional ideas, Ukrainians and Swedes turn the ball in the middle of the field while waiting for a hypothetical loophole. Consequence: the match is bogged down and the 22 players seem to be waiting for the extension. Only Kulusevski gets the spectators out of their torpor with a strike from the right of the area which ends in a corner (89th).
An overtime that starts in the worst possible way for Sweden.
Video refereeing logically expels Danielson for an uncontrolled tackle on Besedin (98th).
The Ukrainian comes out injured.
Moreover, the first half of extra time looks like a game of massacre: little football but a lot of injuries.
Krafth takes a ball in the head, Yarmolenko holds his calf after an attack ...
The second half is not more attractive but Ukraine tries to take advantage of its numerical advantage: Dovbyk misses the inevitable in front of Olsen (111th).
And, finally, a cross from Zinchenko is headed by Dovbyk who deceives Olsen (120th + 1).
