Ukraine captain Zinchenko happy after England draw

Ukraine captain Oleks Zinchenko was delighted after their 1-1 draw with England.

Harry Kane created England's equaliser for Manchester City fullback Kyle Walker after Arsenal defender Zinchenko had put Ukraine ahead.

He later said: "An amazing result for us. England are one of the best teams in the world. We knew it was going to be hard and we would have to defend a lot. In general we did well. Of course we could do better but it is tough against this England side."

On his goal, he added: "Amazing team play from the right side. I tried to be on the spot where I had to be. I was a bit lucky. The atmosphere was unbelievable. It felt like we played at home.

"Massive thanks for all the support for the people here with us today and those who were watching at home. I really hope very soon we can play at home."
