European Championship History
UEFA European Football Championship is the biggest as well as the most important competition in Europe involving the national teams and it has been established in 1960. The tournament has been held every four years ever since, always between two World Cup tournaments, with no less than nine different teams winning thirteen European Championships. Germany are the most successful team with three trophies, followed by Spain and France, with two titles each. The 2008 European Championship, which was held in Switzerland and Austria, was won by Spain, after La Furia Roja beat Germany 1:0 in the final game.
The competition format kept changing throughout the history, with only four sides taking part in the final tournament before 1980. From 1980 to 1992, only eight sides took part in the tournament finals, and from 1996 onwards the tournament expanded to 16 teams. European Championship in Poland and Ukraine will be the last one with 16 participants, seeing that the number of national teams will increase to 24 from 2016.
