History
Czechoslovakia
The team debuted as Czechoslovakia in 1968 against Italy and lost 1–2. Later on, Czechoslovakia became a major force in women's football and first took part in the qualifying for the European Championships in 1989. They finished second in their qualifying group and reached the quarter-finals, where they lost in two legs (1–1 home, 0–2 away) against West Germany. Czechoslovakia also took part in qualifying for the European Championships in 1991. They finished one point behind Hungary and went to a play-off. Czechoslovakia's third and final qualifying phase for the European Championships in 1993 ended in a second-place finish 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.
In the 2024–25 UEFA Women's Nations League, Slovakia competed in League C, Group 2. The team demonstrated strong performances throughout the group stage, securing several victories. Notably, they achieved an 8–0 away win against Gibraltar on 4 April 2025. Other significant results include a 3–0 home victory over the Faroe Islands on 21 February 2025 and a 2–0 away win against Moldova on 8 April 2025. These results positioned Slovakia favorably within their group, reflecting the team's development and competitiveness in European women's football.
The squad for the Nations League featured a mix of experienced players and emerging talents. Key contributors included midfielder Tamara Morávková, who scored five goals in four appearances, and forward Klaudia Fabová, who netted three goals in four matches. The team was managed by head coach Peter Kopúň, under whose guidance Slovakia aimed to build on their successes and strive for promotion to higher tiers in future editions of the competition.
