Shevchenko ready for Sweden
Ukraine, 20:12, June 8, 2012
Ukraine veteran Andrei Shevchenko insists he is fit for Euro 2012 and expects the co-hosts to be ready for Sweden.
The Dynamo Kyiv star is hoping to play an important role in Monday’s opener in Kyiv, despite an injury-plagued campaign at club level.
“The question is not whether I wish to start the match but whether I am fit. And I am,” said the former AC Milan and Chelsea striker.
Shevchenko added he does not expect the recent friendly defeats to count for anything: “You will see a different Ukraine against Sweden.”
