Today's match between Ukraine and Iceland for the 2026 World Cup qualifier, which will take place in Warsaw at the "Legia" stadium (kickoff at 7 PM Kyiv time), will be the seventh encounter between these rivals in history.

In these matches, our team can boast a positive balance, having won three games against the islanders. Interestingly, their current coach, Serhiy Rebrov, scored the decisive penalty for Ukraine's first victory. The second win came with goals from Viktor Tsygankov and Mykhailo Mudryk, while the third, most recent one, featured accurate strikes by Ruslan Malinovskyi (twice), Oleksiy Zavarnytskyi, Ihor Kalynychenko, and Oleg Husyev.

Twice Ukraine drew with Iceland 1-1, scoring goals from Vladyslav Vasylyk and Andriy Yarmolenko, and once they lost (0-2).
