History

Czechoslovakia

The national debuted as Czechoslovakia in 1968 against Italy, and lost 1–2. Due to its early debut, Czechoslovakia became a major force in women's football and first took part in the qualifying for the European Championships in 1989. They finished in second place, and reached the quarter-finals, where they lost over two legs (1–1 home, 0–2 away) against West Germany. Czechoslovakia also took part in the qualifying for the European Championships in 1991. They finished one point behind Hungary, and so went to a play-off. Czechoslovakia's third and final qualifying, for the European Championships in 1993, finished with a second-place out of three, behind Italy.

Slovakia

Slovakia made their debut in a friendly match against the Czech Republic on 21 June 1993. Slovakia lost 0–6. Slovakia made their competitive debut under their own name in the following qualifying, for the 1995 European Championships. Slovakia finished in second place, and therefore were classed by UEFA as between a Class A team, who were seeded, and class B, who had to play a playoff with class A.

Slovakia therefore had to play a playoff for the 1997 European Championships. The team finished last, and were relegated to Class B. Slovakia remained in Class B until the qualifying for the 2007 Women's Football World Cup, when classification was abolished, both for the European Championships and the World Cup. At the qualifying for 2009, Slovakia therefore had their first chance to qualify for a championship. Slovakia had to play in the first round, but won this game. In the second round, Slovakia lost, to Portugal.
