Ukraine were probably the favourites heading into this particular feature but it was the Czechs who had the last laugh. Pavel Sulc scored a brace to do the damage for them but it was a late penalty from Tomas Soucek that gave them the win eventually. Vlad Vanat and Georgiy Sudakov scored the goals for Ukraine.
