As soon as the game started it ended. The referee paused the game due to a very bad thunderstorm coming past overhead. It slightly flooded the pith, but it was ok to play on afterwards. He resumed it about 45 minutes later and France got to a brilliant start; Menez scoring in the 53rd minute. Ukraine were devastated having won the last game by a mile. France weren't going to stop there, they scored another smashing goal in the 56th minute. Cabaye scored the goal. It was all over for the co-hosts, Ukraine, they lost 2-0 in the end.
