Switzerland were eliminated without conceding a World Cup goal in the entire tournament when Ukraine won a penalty shootout after a dire goalless draw in Cologne.

Goalscoring chances were hard to come by although both sides hit the bar in the first half - first Ukraine's Andriy Shevchenko and then Switzerland's Alexander Frei.

But the second half and extra-time were turgid with neither side looking likely to score and it was left to penalties to resolve the issue with Switzerland's goal still unbreached in 390 minutes of World Cup action.
