Head-to-head record • This is the countries' first competitive encounter, their three previous friendly meetings having yielded one win each and a draw over 90 minutes. • They first met in Sweden on 1 June 2008, when Serhiy Nazarenko struck with a long-distance shot to give the visitors a 1-0 victory. • The teams played again in the final of a friendly tournament in Cyprus on 9 February 2011; they drew 1-1 over 90 minutes, with Ukraine then prevailing 5-4 on penalties. Marko Dević replied from the spot with his first goal for his country after Johan Elmander gave Sweden an early lead. • Sweden got their first victory at the third attempt, Tobias Hysén striking two minutes into added time for a 1-0 victory in a friendly in Kharkiv on 10 August 2011. • The nations' only previous competitive encounter at any level came in the 2005/06 UEFA European Under-17 Championship elite round, where they drew 1-1 in Portugal. Selected previous meeting 10 August 2011: Ukraine 0-1 Sweden (Hysén 90+2) – Metalist Stadium, Kharkiv, friendly Ukraine: Dykan, Dević, Mandziuk, Kalynychenko (Konoplyanka 55), Rotan (Edmar 73), Cheberyachko, Voronin (Milevskiy 45), Shevchenko (Antonov 58), Tymoshchuk, Gai, Fedetskiy. Sweden: Isaksson, Wendt, Gerndt (Olsson 82), Granqvist, Elmander (Hysén 67), Källström (Wernbloom 46), Svensson, Larsson (Ekdal 59), Bajrami (Wilhelmsson 26), Majstorovic, Lustig (Safari 62). • This was the sides' most recent fixture, under current coaches Oleh Blokhin and Erik Hamrén respectively. Form guide • Sweden go into the finals on a three-game winning streak in competitive fixtures, notably beating the Netherlands 3-2 in their final Group E game as the Oranje dropped their first points in qualifying. • The Swedes last appeared at a major final tournament at UEFA EURO 2008, where they exited at the group stage. Defeats by Russia and eventual winners Spain negated their opening 2-0 victory against Greece. • Ukraine have not played a competitive fixture since losing 1-0 to Greece (both on the night and on aggregate) in a play-off for the 2010 FIFA World Cup finals at the Donbass Arena, Donetsk on 18 November 2009. • Ukraine's only previous experience of a major tournament came at the 2006 World Cup; they made it through the group stage, recovering from a 4-0 opening loss to Spain by beating Saudi Arabia 4-0 and Tunisia 1-0. They then beat Switzerland 3-0 on penalties following a 0-0 draw in the round of 16, but lost 3-0 to Italy in the quarter-finals. • Thus Ukraine have yet to score a goal from open play – or win inside 120 minutes – against European opposition at a major final tournament. Team ties • Club sides from the two nations have met six times in UEFA competition with the Ukrainians having the slight edge, with the record W2 D3 L1. Most recently, FC Metalist Kharkiv met Malmö FF in this season's UEFA Europa League group stage, winning 4-1 in Sweden and 3-1 at home. • Dević and Edmar, both Ukrainian internationals although the latter is not in the UEFA EURO 2012 squad, scored in that 4-1 Metalist win in Sweden. Dević, as mentioned earlier, struck his first Ukraine goal against Sweden in February 2011. • Zlatan Ibrahimović played in Kyiv in 2009/10, taking part in FC Barcelona's 2-1 UEFA Champions League group stage win against FC Dynamo Kyiv at the Valeriy Lobanovskiy Stadium. • Ukraine coach Blokhin scored against Sweden as a Soviet Union player in a 1-1 friendly draw in Solna on 3 June 1982. Last updated 14/06/12 17:54:29CET 3 Match background Ukraine v Sweden Monday 11 June 2012 - 20.45CET (21.45 local time) MATCH PRESS KIT NSC Olimpiyskiy, Kyiv Match facts UKRAINE • Ukraine have lost six of their last 11 matches; Oleh Gusev has scored five goals in his last five internationals. • Seven of the squad are yet to make a competitive appearance, though all won their first caps in friendlies: Olekandr Goryainov, Maxym Koval, Bohdan Butko, Yevhen Selin, Denys Garmash, Yevhen Konoplyanka and Marko Dević. Injury news • Goalkeepers Olexandr Shovkovskiy (shoulder) and Andriy Dykan (concussion) were ruled out of the finals while Dmytro Chygrynskiy missed out with an ankle problem. Miscellaneous • Ukraine had training camps in Turkey and Austria before returning to Kyiv on 06/06. Blokhin had to leave the Turkish camp for a few days following the death of his mother. • There are eight survivors of Ukraine's only previous final tournament, when Blokhin guided them to the 2006 FIFA World Cup quarter-finals: Andriy Shevchenko, Anatoliy Tymoshchuk, Andriy Voronin, Artem Milevskiy, Gusev, Ruslan Rotan, Andriy Pyatov and Serhiy Nazarenko. Pyatov and Nazarenko did not make an appearance in Germany. UEFA EURO 2012 build-up • Ukraine have had three coaches since the start of 2010. Myron Markevych guided the side to three wins and a 1-1 draw with the Netherlands before focusing on responsibilities at FC Metalist Kharkiv in October 2010. Yuriy Kalitvintsev managed one victory in eight games as caretaker coach before making way for Blokhin in April 2011. • Ukraine suffered a national record four successive losses between June and September 2011, with defeats by France, Sweden, Uruguay and the Czech Republic. • Shevchenko became the first Ukrainian player to reach 100 caps on 08/10/2010, in a draw with Canada. Three days later, against Brazil, Tymoshchuk became the second. • On 25/05/2010 Goryainov became Ukraine's oldest debutant when, aged 34 years and 330 days, he made his bow in a 4-0 victory against Lithuania in Kharkiv. • Andriy Yarmolenko scored after 15 seconds against Uruguay on 02/09/2011, Ukraine's quickest ever goal.

Match background Shakhtar • Shakhtar lost to German opponents at this stage in 2012/13 when they drew 2-2 at home to Borussia Dortmund, leading twice through Darijo Srna and Douglas Costa with Robert Lewandowski scoring Dortmund's first equaliser. Shakhtar were beaten 3-0 in Germany, Mario Götze getting the second goal. • In last season's UEFA Champions League group stage, the Ukrainian champions drew 0-0 at home to Bayer 04 Leverkusen after a 4-0 away defeat. • Shakhtar's last four home games with Bundesliga visitors have ended in three draws and a loss. Their last success came against holders Eintracht Frankfurt in the 1980/81 UEFA Cup first round when Mikhail Sokolovski's goal earned a 1-0 first-leg win, although the ensuing 3-0 defeat in Germany meant it was in vain. • The Pitmen's home record against German clubs is W2 D3 L1. Overall it reads W5 D4 L5. • Shakhtar's most memorable encounter with a Bundesliga team was their 2-1 victory over SV Werder Bremen after extra time in the 2009 UEFA Cup final in Istanbul.
