Team history

Ukraine reached the 2006 World Cup quarter-finals with Andriy Shevchenko’s generation, progressing from their group and beating Switzerland on penalties before losing to eventual champions Italy.

Their best European Championship campaign came at EURO 2020, played in 2021. Ukraine beat Sweden after extra time to reach the quarter-finals, where England ended their run. Achievements by Ukrainian players for the USSR belong to the Soviet team’s record; the independent Ukrainian national side has its own results.
