Match Commentary

90'
Kalinichenko in particular impressed for them today and Shevchenko looks to be finding his form just when they need it. As for Saudi Arabia, their performance today suggested that that second forty-five minute spell during the Tunisia game was simply a blip in their efforts to prove themselves the worst team in recent World Cups.
90'
Ukraine have come up with the sort of performance needed to dispel some of the questions surrounding their continued participation in this tournament. With Saudi Arabia now duly dispatched they can look towards their final game with justifiable expectation of securing the result they need to progress.
