Ukraine 2-1 Sweden | Andriy Shevchenko Goal

Shevchenko heads Ukraine to win

Veteran striker Andriy Shevchenko was the hero for co-hosts Ukraine as his two headed goals in seven second-half minutes saw them come from behind to beat Sweden 2-1.

The 35-year-old converted two headers in seven second-half minutes to overturn Zlatan Ibrahimovic’s opener for Sweden and send the Ukrainian capital into rapture in the country’s first European Championship match.
