FWC, Hamburg
Italy cruised into the semi-finals of Germany 2006 with a convincing 3-0 victory over Ukraine in Hamburg on Friday, 30 June 2006.
A sixth minute strike from Gianluca Zambrotta set the tone for the evening and a second half brace from Luca Toni merely compounded the misery for Oleg Blokhin’s side.
Oleg Gusev, Andriy Gusin and Maksym Kalinichenko all went close for Ukraine, but were denied by a combination of the woodwork and some excellent goalkeeping by Gianluigi Buffon.
Italy now turn their attentions to a semi-final tie with the hosts in Dortmund on Tuesday, 4 July, while FIFA World Cup™ debutants Ukraine will return home justifiably proud of their efforts.
