Spain Sink Sweden

Spain booked their place in the quarter-finals beating Sweden 2-1 after David Villa's last-gasp strike won the game.

Fernando Torres gave Spain the lead after 15 minutes poking home David Silva's cross. Sweden levelled when Zlatan Ibrahimovic met Fredrick Stoor's cross on 34 minutes.

Villa scored the winner in the 92nd minute and slide the ball into the corner of the net.

Spain were lacking the fluid movement they showed against Russia, but I predict they will raise their game for the next round.

Result

Sweden 1-2 Spain

Holders Lose To Sweden

Zlatan Ibrahimovic scored his first goal for Sweden since 2005 with a stunning strike on 67 minutes. The second goal was scrambled home by Sweden's Petter Hansson on 73 minutes. Greece are apparently the current holders, but on this display they looked nowhere near the team that shocked Europe four years ago.

Basically Greece's involvement in the competition is over and I can't see them qualifying. However, Sweden's chances have been given a boost and they have a good chance of getting a result against Russia.

Result

Greece 0-2 Sweden
