COLOGNE (Reuters) - Switzerland and Ukraine went into extra time at 0-0 on Monday in an evenly balanced World Cup second round match.
Both teams hit the crossbar in the first half. Ukraine's Andriy Shevchenko glanced a downward header which bounced up against the bar in the 21st minute.
Three minutes later Swiss striker Alex Frei rattled the bar at the other end with a powerful free kick.
The eventual winners, after extra time or a subsequent penalty shootout, will play Italy in the quarter-finals in Hamburg on Friday.
