He made his debut for his country in a 4–0 loss to Croatia in a UEFA Euro 1996 qualifying match in March 1995.[2] He did not score his first goal until May 1996, however, when he scored in a friendly against Turkey.[3] On 9 October 1999, during a crucial UEFA Euro 2000 qualifying match against Russia in Moscow, Shevchenko scored his seventh international goal to level the game at 1–1,[4] securing Ukraine a place in the qualifying play-offs. In the first leg of the play-off against Slovenia, Shevchenko scored the first goal of the game in a 2–1 loss.[5] However, in the second leg, the two teams drew 1–1, meaning that Ukraine lost 3–2 on aggregate.[6] During the UEFA section of the 2002 FIFA World Cup qualifiers, Shevchenko scored nine goals in the qualifying group and captained the side to a second-place finish behind Poland. In the play-offs against Germany, he scored in the second leg in a 5–2 aggregate defeat.[7] During 2006 FIFA World Cup qualification, Ukraine topped their qualifying group, automatically qualifying for the main competition in Germany and their first World Cup in history as an independent nation.[8] In the group stage, he scored one goal against Saudi Arabia in a 4–0 victory[9] and another goal against Tunisia in a 1–0 victory,[10] as Ukraine finished second in the group stage behind Spain. Shevchenko captained the side to a penalty shoot-out victory against Switzerland in the Round of 16, but the team lost to eventual champions Italy in the quarter-finals.[11] He scored his final international goal in the 55th minute of a UEFA Euro 2012 group stage match against Sweden, which ended as a 2–1 victory for Ukraine.[12] He decided to retire from international football after the final match in the group stage against England; it ended with a 1–0 loss for Ukraine.[13][14]
