Shevchenko sends Ukraine through

ANDRIY SHEVCHENKO has been hailed a Ukraine history-maker after a cool penalty gave his side a place in the last 16 of the World Cup.

Shevchenko scored from the spot in 70th minute of the match against Tunisia in Berlin’s Olympic Stadium after he had been tripped.

Anatoliy Tymoschuk, the Shakhtar Donetsk midfielder who was voted man of the match, said: “It’s an historic moment for us and it’s fantastic to be in the last 16, but that is not enough. Now we have to aim to keep it going and focus on the next match.
