Despite the scoreline this was a spirited display from England against the reigning paralympic and European champions.

Strong showings from Rob Hughes on his full debut and Jordan Raynes in goal frustrated Ukraine for long spells and limited them to just two goals in the second half.

England now progress to the knockout stages to play Spain on Wednesday lunchtime knowing that victory will secure their qualification for the 2011 World Championships.
