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 meeting of 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, was secured by accurate strikes from Ruslan Malinovskyi (twice), Oleksiy Zavarnytskyi, Yevhen Khacheridi, and Oleg Gusev.

Twice Ukraine drew with Iceland 1-1, once scoring with Volodymyr Vastryukov and Andriy Yarmolenko's goals, and one time they lost (0-2).
