Good evening and welcome to Eurosport's live coverage of the huge game between Italy and Sweden, which the Swedes begin 1-0 ahead on aggregate. Either Gian Piero Ventura will keep his job a little longer or Zlatan Ibrahomivic will (probably) end his exile from the international game, and in a three hours time we'll know which. Team news up next...

FT: Italy 0-0 Sweden (0-1 on aggregate). It was backs to the wall for Sweden, but they showed great organisation and to hold firm. As for Italy, they struggled to create chances of real quality and can't really have any complaints. They will probably complain about a lack of a penalty, but Sweden had very strong claims too. Russia will be the first World Cup in 60 years not to feature Italy.

Buffon up for another corner, the delivery is poor again and that will do it! It's all over and Italy are out!

Olsen booked in anticipation of him time-wasting, it seems.

Buffon comes up for a corner, Sweden half clear it and Jorginho hits a shot wide on the rebound.

Bernardeschi booked for a foul on Larsson, who is milking this as if he were a dairy farmer.

Big appeal for handball from a Chiellini cross but the referee isn't interested.

Five added minutes! Not sure where those stoppages were.

Barzagli wipes out Berg on halfway and that will waste a lot of time.

Parolo rises highest in the Sweden box but then can't hit the target with his header.

Olsen makes a fine save to keep out a ferocious El Shaarawy volley from just 12 yards out.

Belotti drags a shot wide from 25 yards.

Italy win another free-kick in a good position which Bernardeschi - who has recently replaced Candreva - takes but not for the first time and Italian set piece doesn't clear the first man.

Forsberg leads a Sweden breakaway and crosses to Berg, who rather than go for goal heads square for Thelin, but a defender reads it and is able to head clear.

Belotti goes down very easily in the hope of winning a penalty, apparently unaware of the referee's unwillingness to give a spot kick tonight, and sure enough doesn't get one.

Chiellini goes on a surging run down the left and sends in a great cross, which Svensson gets a slight touch on sending the ball to Florenzi, and the Roma man fires over.

Italy win a free-kick inside the Swedish half, which Florenzi whips into the box, but some shirt pulling means the chance is gone before the ball even arrives.

Jorginho tries his luck from range and even gets the ball to bounce just before the goalkeeper, however Olsen is equal to it yet again.

That 's Claesson last action as he makes way for Rhoden.
