This football match has an extensive article on Russian wikipedia.
It is difficult to find sources in English for this match; I know that some RSs have been published but tracking them down is tricky.
There are a number of Russian sources though. For example, this article on BBCRussian from 2008 describes the match as one of hte three most important matches in Russian football and discusses the match over 4 paragraphs.
I would compare this match in notability to the England --Scotland series in the Euro2000 qualifiers, which is detailed in a section of England–Scotland_football_rivalry. I would argue that this particular match is more significant because it remains one of the only 2 times Russia and Ukraine have faced each other in an official match (the other being the earlier match in the same qualifying tournament).-- Johnsemlak ( talk) 15:25, 11 June 2012 (UTC)
