MATCH STATS
Head-to-head
Ukraine
England
Head-to-head
- England have lost just one of their seven meetings with Ukraine in all competitions (W4 D2), a 1-0 defeat in October 2009 in a World Cup qualifier. The last two games between the sides have finished level, with this the first meeting since September 2013.
- England and Ukraine have met at a major tournament once before, with the Three Lions winning 1-0 in the group stages of Euro 2012, thanks to a Wayne Rooney goal.
Ukraine
- Ukraine's only previous quarter-final appearance in a major tournament ended in a 3-0 defeat by Italy at the 2006 World Cup. Ukraine have won two of their last three European Championship matches, more than they had in their first seven in the competition (W1 L6).
- Ukraine's West Ham winger Andriy Yarmolenko has either scored or assisted five of Ukraine's eight goals at the European Championship.
- At Euro 2020, Ukraine have won two and lost two of their four matches. They have scored six goals including two headers.
England
- Each of England's previous three quarter-final matches at the European Championship have gone to extra time and penalties. After progressing from the first of these against Spain in 1996, England lost in penalty shootouts against Portugal in 2004 and Italy in 2012.
- The Three Lions are only the second side in European Championship history not to concede in any of their first four games of an edition of the tournament, after Germany in 2016.
- Forward Raheem Sterling has scored three of England's four goals at Euro 2020 so far, while only two players have ever scored more for England in a single edition at the tournament - Alan Shearer in 1996 (5) and Wayne Rooney in 2004 (4).
- All four of England goals at Euro 2020 have come from inside the penalty area, including two headers.
Come on Ukraine (although I can't see England not reaching the final at least)
