Sweden reached the knockout stage or Euro for the first time since 2004, and in great fashion after getting a dramatic 3-2 victory over Poland last Wednesday. That consecutive win allowed them to gain the first place in the group over Spain. In their last six games, Jane Andersson’s team is in good form.

With that third goal over Poland, Sweden inadvertently helped Ukraine to gain a spot in the round of 16. Andriy Schevchenko’s team has been inconsistent so far, they lost against Netherlands and Austria but managed to get a win over North Macedonia and be one of the best thirds. However, they can treat any team and they want to prove it.

That was an emotional night at the Olimpiyskiy. First, Sweden’s icon Zlatan Ibrahimovic put his team ahead, but then current Ukraine coach, Andriy Shevchenko levelled just three minutes later and finally struck the winner.

However, Ukraine didn’t progress from their group that time and neither could do it in 2016. So, this will be their first experience in the knockout stage against a rival that surprisingly has been favorable for them.
