Shevchenko returns to Ukraine training ahead of England clash

Ukraine's hopes of beating England at Euro2012 received a boost today with news that Andriy Shevchenko was back training with the squad.

The 35-year old Dynamo Kiev striker was struggling with a knee injury in the lead-up to the final Group D fixture in Donetsk on Tuesday night but was able to join his teammates for a session at FC Metallurg's training ground.

Shevchenko missed Sunday's training session because his knee was playing up but it appears that he will now be available to take on the Three Lions as the co-hosts look to win to force their way into the quarter-finals.
