Results, that are marked with ET were concluded after extra time. Games marked with PS have been decided in a penalty shootout.
In 1968, there was something special. After the first match between Italy and Yugoslavia, even after an extension, the match was still undecided with a score of 1-1. Because of there was no penalty shootout that time, a repetition of the finals were held. The repetition (that's what the R stands for) was won by Italy 2-0 against Yugoslavia.
Third Place Match
Incidentally, the match for the third place was only staged between 1960 and 1980. The results and winners can be found in the following table.
Year | Host Country | 3rd Place | Score | 4th Place |
1960 | France | Czechoslovakia | 2-0 | France |
1964 | Spain | Hungary | 3-1 ET | Denmark |
1968 | Italy | England | 2-0 | Soviet Union |
1972 | Belgium | Belgium | 2-1 | Hungary |
1976 | Yugoslavia | Netherlands | 3-2 ET | Yugoslavia |
1980 | Italy | Czechoslovakia | 1-1 9-8 PS | Italy |
Since 1984, the third place was not determined any more. Again, also in this table, ET stands for results after extra time while PS is standing for penalty shootouts.
