Ukraine knocked out Swizterland in the shootout, even though the Swiss team failed to allow a goal the entire tournament. New Chelsea signing Andriy Shevkchenko saw his spot kick saved, but the next 3 shooters for Ukraine found the net. Switzerland had 2 penalty's saved and one hit the post. Switzerland became the first team to be eliminated without conceding.

Ukraine advance to face Italy, who won on a dubious penalty call.

Tomorrow's matches: Ghana vs. Brazil. Essien is suspended and Robinho is out with an injury.
France vs. Spain. If France lose, it would be Zidane's last football match, as he is due to retire from all football completely after this World Cup.
Glory, Glory, Man United!
