Romania vs Slovenia Euro 2028 Tickets

If you thought it was tricky to purchase well-priced, and not overly inflated, tickets for top club football for, say, the English Premier League, then you have not tried to get tickets for a major national team tournament.

The level of interest in such events is off the charts. The fact that these events are far less frequent than the annual competitions that are run in club football is one reason for that, and another is the whole approach to making a whole holiday or trip out of an overseas trip to see your chosen national team in action, which leads to millions of fans applying for tickets via official sources.

Take, for example, the UEFA European Championship finals that are on the horizon. If you want to try to get your tickets via UEFA’s ticketing portal, we’d wish you luck and make it clear to you that your chances of success via this route are somewhere lower than slim and just below none.

That’s because the weight of demand is way higher than supply, and the process is not helped by the way UEFA chooses to run its ticket release. The first ticket release for the finals takes place before the draw for the competition is even made or even before most nations have even qualified.

This leads to a bizarre and unnecessary situation where millions of football fans are applying for tickets for specific games, knowing the date and location of a match but not the two teams that they’ll be watching. So, in this scenario, you might get lucky and win in the ballot and are then left hoping that you’ll be watching two big nations or perhaps your own country play, but the chances are that they will not be.

Why put yourself through this nightmare when you can simply visit SeatPick, search for tickets for your chosen game, and then select from the countless options available, offering you the best value tickets online? All are within easy reach of a click or two and with the added peace of mind that comes from a purchase guarantee and no annoying hidden fees.

We work with hundreds of the most trusted ticket reseller sites to bring users of our platform the widest level of choice possible. Trust us, you will not be disappointed.

Romania vs Slovenia UEFA Euros Tournament Record

Romania’s record at the UEFA European Championship finals is pretty poor on the whole, with Tricolorii making it to five previous campaigns only to be knocked out in the group phase in four of those.

Indeed, in those four tournaments, they failed to garner a single victory, and the only exception to this run of form came at Euro 2000, which was co-hosted by Belgium and the Netherlands.

Impressively, Romania drew their opener with Germany 1-1 in Liege but then lost to Portugal when Costinha netted a 94th-minute winner in Arnhem.

That meant that in order to secure their passage to the knockout phase, Romania would have to get a positive result against Kevin Keegan’s England.

Though Romania took the lead, goals from Alan Shearer and Liverpool striker Michael Owen put the Three Lions in control. Dorinel Munteanu leveled the game before Phil Neville gave away a silly penalty, which was scored by Ioan Ganea to give them their most famous victory in the competition.

That led to a Quarter-Final clash with Italy, but Dino Zoff’s side were far too powerful for the Romanians, and first-half goals from Francesco Totti and Pippo Inzaghi were enough to see them progress to the next round.

Slovenia’s one previous UEFA European Championship finals appearance came at Euro 2000 and should have ended far more productively.

Slovenia threw away a three-goal lead in their opening group game and saw the Former Republic of Yugoslavia mount a comeback to secure a 3-3 draw. They were then holding Spain to a draw but then lost narrowly before coming up against Norway in a must-win clash, which they duly drew, meaning they finished bottom of their group.

Romania vs Slovenia Head-to-Head

Romania and Slovenia have previously met in the UEFA European Championship in one other campaign, and that came in the qualifying phase ahead of Euro 2008.

Goals from Gabriel Tamas and Daniel Niculae gave Romania a 2-1 win in Celje, and in the return fixture in Romania, former Chelsea striker Adrian Mutu was among the goalscorers in a 2-0 victory.
