Euro 2020: Ukraine eliminate Sweden

Glasgow: Ukraine had reached the round of 16 at the European Championship with two losses and the worst record of the advancing teams. And now the quarterfinals, too.

Ukraine eliminated previously unbeaten Sweden 2-1 on Tuesday with a goal in stoppage time at the end of extra time from a player who was left on the bench for the entire group stage.

Substitute Artem Dovbyk stooped low to guide a header from Oleksandr Zinchenko’s cross past goalkeeper Robin Olsen.

It was the 24-year-old forward’s first goal for the national team.

Ukraine’s greatest ever forward, current coach Andriy Shevchenko, ran down the sideline to celebrate his players, who will now head to Rome to face England on Saturday.

Zinchenko also scored a goal on a day when Manchester City teammate Raheem Sterling got one in England’s 2-0 win over Germany. Zinchenko gave Ukraine the lead in the 27th minute when he rifled in a low shot set up by a crafty pass from captain Andriy Yarmolenko.

Emil Forsberg’s deflected shot from outside the area in the 43rd minute equalized for Sweden.

It was his fourth goal at Euro 2020, but a tournament lead-tying fifth eluded him in the second half despite curling shots off the post and the crossbar.

“It’s a very bitter defeat,” Sweden coach Janne Andersson said.

The winner between Ukraine and England will play Denmark or Czech Republic in the semifinals.
