Miscellaneous
• Berti Vogts is the only man to have won a EURO as a player (West Germany, 1972) and a coach (Germany, 1996)
• Three teams have held the UEFA European Championship and FIFA World Cup at the same time: West Germany (EURO 1972, 1974 World Cup), France (1998 World Cup, EURO 2000) and Spain (EURO 2008, 2010 World Cup, EURO 2012).
• Thirteen players have won the European Cup/UEFA Champions League and a EURO in the same summer:
Luis Suárez (Internazionale and Spain, 1964)
Ronald Koeman (PSV and Netherlands, 1988)
Barry van Aerle (PSV and Netherlands, 1988)
Hans van Breucklen (PSV and Netherlands, 1988)
Gerald Vanenburg (PSV and Netherlands, 1988)
Juan Mata (Chelsea and Spain, 2012)
Fernando Torres (Chelsea and Spain, 2012)
Cristiano Ronaldo (Real Madrid and Portugal, 2016)
Pepe (Real Madrid and Portugal, 2016)
Jorginho (Chelsea and Italy, 2020)
Dani Carvajal (Real Madrid and Spain, 2024)
Nacho (Real Madrid and Spain, 2024)
Joselu (Real Madrid and Spain, 2024)
Wim Kieft and Nicolas Anelka narrowly missed out on this club; PSV’s Kieft was an unused substitute for the Netherlands in the 1988 decider, while Anelka – a 2000 UEFA Champions League winner with Real Madrid – did not get off the bench in France’s UEFA EURO 2000 final win. Anelka's France and Madrid team-mate Christian Karembeu holds the unique honour of being an unused substitute in European Cup and European Championship final victories in the same summer. Emerson Palmieri played in Italy's UEFA EURO 2020 final triumph but did not feature for Chelsea in the UEFA Champions League decider.
• In 2008 Germany's Michael Ballack, then with Chelsea, became the first player to appear in European Cup and EURO final defeats in the same year.
• Four players have followed European Cup final defeat with EURO victory in the same year: Ignacio Zoco and Amancio Amaro (1964, Real Madrid and Spain) and Manny Kaltz and Horst Hrubesch (1980, Hamburg and West Germany).
