Facts
- Ukraine have taken part in two previous preliminary
competitions, losing only in the play-offs. In 1997 the Ukrainian
national team were beaten by Croatia 2-0 and 1-1.
- Four years later they lost the crucial decider 4-1 to the
eventual 2002 FIFA World Cup™ runners-up Germany. They had finished
the group phase in second place behind Poland and were unlucky to
draw Germany, undoubtedly the strongest team in the play-offs.
- Ukraine's best wins came in 1998 and 1999. In 1998 they beat
Georgia 4-0 and a year later defeated Andorra by the same margin.
Their heaviest defeat came in 1995 when they lost to Croatia 4-0.
