Albert Gudmundsson put Iceland ahead on 30 minutes before Viktor Tsyhankov equalised early in the second-half.

With six minutes remaining, Mudryk delivered a moment of magic with a first-time effort from the edge of the box.

It sparked wild scenes at the Wroclaw Stadium in Poland, where Ukraine were forced to play due to the ongoing war with Russia.
