2130: And so we bid farewell to Euro 2012 Day Seven, which saw memorable moments from the likes of Andrea Pirlo, Mario Mandzukic and Fernando Torres. We've lost our first team as Republic of Ireland bow out, and one from more Spain, Croatia or Italy will also miss out on a quarter-final berth.

On Friday it's all about Group D, as co-hosts Ukraine meet France at the Donbass Arena at 1600 GMT and then Sweden meet England at the Olympic Stadium in Kiev at 1845 GMT.

Fresh from their stunning Andriy Shevchenko-inspired win over Sweden, Oleg Blokhin's Ukraine can qualify for the quarter-finals if they beat Laurent Blanc's France side.

Roy Hodgson's England, meanwhile, can knock the Swedes out of the competition and boost their own last-eight hopes if they pick up all three points against Erik Hamren's Sweden later on.

CNN's live blog coverage with Jonathan Stevenson will get under way at 1500 GMT on Day Eight, so join us then.
