England and Portugal UEFA Euros Tournament Record

England is a nation still waiting to win its first UEFA European Championship. Their best performances in the competition undoubtedly came at Euro 1996 and Euro 2020.

At Euro 1996, on home soil, England advanced to the semi-finals and faced off against their old foes Germany. The match ended 1-1 and Germany won 7-6 in a tense penalty shoot-out. Gareth Southgate, who would later manage England, saw his spot-kick saved.

At Euro 2020, England progressed to their first European Championship final and were beaten on penalties once again at Wembley, this time by Italy. The Three Lions went in front within two minutes through Luke Shaw before Leonardi Bonucci equalised in the second-half. The match went to penalties and Marcus Rashford, Jadon Sancho, and Bukayo Saka all failed to hold their nerve in the shoot-out.

Portugal claimed their first UEFA European Championship in 2016, beating France 1-0 in the final thanks to an extra-time goal from Eder. It was the nation’s first major tournament success, having lost to Greece in the Euro 2004 final on home soil.

Since failing to qualify for Euro 1992, Portugal have reached the knockout stages in the tournament every single time. It’s an impressive record that no other nation can match.
