From Vysoky Zamok Ukrainian striker Andriy Voronin (Bayer Leverkusen): Have you recieved an invitation to the National Team? Yes, Bayer got a fax. But I will come to Kyiv only on Sunday as we play an important game against Werder on Saturday. We are currently 8th but not very far from the current leaders, Wolfsburg. After a third of BundesLiga season you scored 5 goals... Last year I had the same result. I think our coaches are happy with this. I might even become a starter soon. So far Bulgarian striker Berbatov is beyond competition. I usually substitute in for Franca. Do you want to talk about the game in Lviv? I'd like to forget that game. I think I will have to talk to Blokhin. I hope it will be resolved. Blokhin joked that he will give you a haircut... I don't know if he was joking, but I don't want to change my hair style. I don't think this is the main thing. What do you think about the upcoming game? I think Turkey will push forward with all their might -- they are 2 points behind us. But we will have our chances and we will do our best to convert them... Do you know about our problems with the squad? Yes, I already talked to Anatoli Tymoschuk. We will miss him -- he is a key player for us

Great start by Ukraine after an early strike by Oleg Gusiev and then a strike from the most in form striker in Europe right now, Sheva.... Turkey 0-2 Ukraine [Gusev 9, Shevchenko 17] about 30 minutes left.
yep, the Danes let the lead slip twice as they threw away some crucial points in Tbilisi. A good result for the Ukraine as it stands. Georgia 2-2 Denmark [Demetradze 34, Astiani 76; Tomasson 9, 64] And currently its Greece 1-0 Kazakhstan [Charisteas 24] about 35 mins played in that one.....
FINAL: Turkey: 0 Ukraine: 3 Gusjev 9', Shevchenko 17', 89' OTHER MATCHES: FINAL: Georgia: 2 Denmark: 2 HALF TIME: Greece: 2 Kazakhstan: 0
Sheva scores once more to kill the game off. Great result for the team. Blokhin is working his magic. Turkey 0-3 Ukraine [Gusev 9, Shevchenko 17, 90] Elsewhere its now; Greece 2-0 Kazakhstan [Charisteas 24, 45] @ HT
