Blokhin overjoyed by success
20/06/2006: Ukraine coach Oleg Blokhin described his side's 4-0 win over Saudi Arabia as a 'fairytale' victory following their opening game defeat.
Blokhin's men were the first European side to qualify for the finals and much was expected from them in Germany, but a 4-0 defeat to Spain was the worst possible start.
But they got back on track with a 4-0 success over Saudi Arabia, thanks to goals from Rusol, Rebrov, Shevchenko and Kalinichenko, with the coach delighted with the response from his players.
Blokhin said: "It's a little bit like Cinderella. The pumpkin turned into a beautiful coach and the other animals turned into wonderful horses.
"That's what happened to us. We knew it was a decisive match for us and we turned things around."
