Romania vs Austria Euro 2024 Tickets

Thirty years after FIFA launched the World Cup in 1930, UEFA got the ball rolling on the European Championships in 1960. The competition took some time to bed in, and by Euro 1984, won by the stylish French side of the era, it had well and truly captured the imagination and interest of football fans across the continent.

The 60th anniversary of the event led to UEFA running a pan-European tournament for Euro 2020, albeit it kicked off a year later due to the coronavirus pandemic, and now millions of fans look forward to the finals of the event, eagerly looking for tickets to see their national team in action.

The allure of traveling overseas to see your country in action is immense, so much so that millions of fans apply for tickets at UEFA’s ticketing portal during the initial lottery-style ballot, and they do so by applying for specific games before even knowing which two nations will do battle. This situation is far from ideal, and the majority of those who apply will end up empty-handed.

Austria vs Romania UEFA Euros Tournament Record

Austria first made an appearance at the UEFA European Championship finals at Euro 2008 and that came after 12 successive failed attempts at qualifying. It’s worth noting, however, that Das Team only qualified on that occasion due to the fact they were co-hosting the event with Switzerland.

Playing on home soil didn’t aid their progress, and they managed just one point from their three group games. Euro 2016 saw a similar level of success, in other words, an immediate elimination, but Euro 2020 proved a much better showing.

Austria beat both North Macedonia and Ukraine in their group stage games and then took on Roberto Mancini’s Italy and fought well to take the game to extra time before the Italians, who would go on to win the competition, edged to a 2-1 victory.

At the time of writing, Romania had qualified for the finals of UEFA’s premier national team tournament on five occasions, and in four of those, they were knocked out of the group stage, failing to win a single game across all four attempts.

Euro 2000 has been the one exception to the rule. There, in Belgium and the Netherlands, Romania needed to secure their first-ever tournament finals win in their last group game in order to progress to the knockout phase.

They took on Kevin Keegan’s England, and not many would have expected much from the Romanians in Charleroi.

At half-time, goals from Alan Shearer and Micheal Owen saw the Three Lions go 2-1 up, but Dorinel Munteanu immediately leveled early in the second half, and then in the dying minutes, Phil Neville gave away a silly penalty, and former Wolves man Ionel Ganea fired home to give Tricolorii a memorable win.

They then lost to Italy in the Quarter-Finals in Brussels.

Austria vs Romania Head-to-Head

Austria and Romania have only previously met in one UEFA European Championship campaign, and that came in the qualifying for Euro 1988.

Legendary former Real Madrid and Barcelona playmaker Gheorghe Hagi was among the goals in a 4-0 win for Romania in Bucharest, and in the return fixture, the two teams drew 0-0 in Vienna, and neither nation made it to the finals in Germany.
