Ukrainian football clubs in European competitions

Ukrainian football clubs have participated in European football competitions since 1965, when in the 1965–66 season, Dynamo Kyiv took part in the UEFA Cup Winners' Cup – the first Ukrainian and the first Soviet club to do so. In total, 17 clubs have represented Ukraine in European competition, among which 7 also previously represented the Soviet Union.

History

[edit]

Dynamo Kyiv made a bold entry in the continental competitions back in 1965–66 as holders of the 1964 Soviet Cup.

Until 1993 Ukrainian clubs represented the Soviet Union. Upon dissolution of the Soviet Union all their points were passed on to the Russian football federation clubs boosting the Russian coefficient and placing Russia among best ranking federations in Europe, while Ukrainian federation clubs started out from scratch.

As part of the Soviet Union, Dynamo Kyiv participated in 24 various competitions playing over hundred games and winning three trophies. Its star player Oleg Blokhin became one of the most recognized players not for the Kyiv's club, but for the whole Soviet football.

Beside Dynamo, the Soviet football was also represented by other six clubs from Ukraine among which are Shakhtar Donetsk with 5 European seasons and Dnipro Dnipropetrovsk with 6 European seasons.

Since attaining independence, Ukraine was represented by many new clubs some of which played in Soviet competition, while some others never existed in the Soviet Union.

Dynamo Kyiv (1965), Karpaty Lviv (1970), Zorya Luhansk (1973), Chornomorets Odesa (1975), Shakhtar Donetsk (1977), FC Dnipro (1984), Metalist Kharkiv (1988), Tavriya Simferopol (1992), Nyva Vinnytsia (1996), Vorskla Poltava (1997), CSKA Kyiv (1998), Kryvbas Kryvyi Rih (1999), Metalurh Donetsk (2002), Metalurh Zaporizhya (2002), Illichivets Mariupol (2004), FC Oleksandriya (2016), Olimpik Donetsk (2017), Desna Chernihiv (2020), Kolos Kovalivka (2020), SC Dnipro-1 (2022), Polissya Zhytomyr (2024).
