View Ukraine v England head to head

Kick-off: 6.00pm local (5.00pm BST) Full time The opening minutes were dominated by England but Ukraine's counter-attacks looked increasingly dangerous until Arsenal's Zinchenko put the ball into the back of the net. Kyle Walker stepped up to equalise with his first England goal just before half time. England continued to dominate after the break with Saker having a great strike touched onto the bar by the keeper on 58 minutes. Disappointing from England who failed to beat an inferior team.
