In the extra time final, Sweden and Ukraine reached the quarter-finals of the European Championship. Shevchenko led the team to the quarter-finals of the competition, and also tied the best result in the history of the Ukrainian team, and in the 2006 World Cup, the Ukrainian team reached the top 8. If England can be beaten in the quarter-finals, Shevchenko and Ukraine will make new history.
After the game, Shevchenko said: "Both teams played well. It's a fun game. Neither side wanted to lose, so we staged the play at the end. ”
"With such performance and responsibility, our team deserves to be loved by the people of the whole country." We knew from the first minute how we should play. We know who can strengthen the team in the game and the plans the team has worked well. ”
It is worth mentioning that the next match will be played in Rome, Italy, and Shevchenko called on all Italian fans to cheer for him and Ukraine, and he wants to make Roma the home of Ukraine. The media said it was not known how many England fans there were in Italy, but all AC Milan fans would definitely support him at that time. And this is not the first time he has led the team back to Italy to play, in 2018, he led the Ukrainian team to a 1-1 draw with the Blues in Genoa.
