A full replay of a thrilling group game from Euro 2012, as the Three Lions try to record their first competitive win against Sweden.

England boss Roy Hodgson has only been appointed a month earlier, filling the void left by Fabio Capello’s resignation. His task is complicated by a suspension for star player Wayne Rooney, leaving towering striker Andy Carroll instead to lead the line in this game. A 1-1 draw with France in their first match has provided some encouragement and means victory against Sweden will leave the Three Lions in charge of their own fate.

The Swedes know defeat in Kiev will send them out and are pinning their hopes on brilliant centre-forward Zlatan Ibrahimovic.
