Italy go through

Italy

Italy scored off a penalty in the last minute of the game to beat Australia and enter the quarterfinals. This defeat ended the run of the ‘socceroos’ in the 2006 world cup. Guus Hiddink was not able to repeat the feat of taking South Korea to the quarterfinals in the last edition of the world cup in 2002.

Shevchenko may ultimately prove to be the key in the match-up between Ukraine and Switzerland.
