Ukraine at the UEFA European Championship
Ukraine have appeared in only two UEFA European Championships — Euro 2012 and Euro 2016. (Before 1996 some of its players played for the Soviet Union national football team and CIS national football team — Oleksiy Mykhailychenko, Hennadiy Lytovchenko, Oleh Luzhny, Ivan Hetsko and others.)
For Euro 2012, they qualified automatically as one of the host countries. This marked their début at the major European football tournament. In their opening game against Sweden, Ukraine won 2–1 in Kiev. Despite the team's efforts, the co-hosts were eliminated after a 0–2 loss to France and a 0–1 loss to England, all in Donetsk. The UEFA Euro 2012 was the second ever international final that Ukraine appeared following their international finals debut in the 2006 FIFA World Cup.
For Euro 2016, Ukraine qualified via the play-offs.
