Spain and Austria UEFA Euros Tournament Record
Spain can look back with pride at their history in this tournament, while Austria is a nation still hoping to achieve greatness in international football.
La Roja boasts a remarkable history in the UEFA European Championships, securing three championship titles. No nation has won the trophy more times. Spain's first victory occurred in 1964 and their fans had to wait more than 40 years to see their team achieve glory once again.
Spain won back-to-back European Championships in 2008 and 2012, winning the 2010 FIFA World Cup too. Their distinct 'tiki-taka' playing style revolutionised the sport, with Spain famously beating Italy 4-0 in the Euro 2012 final.
In contrast, Austria's past achievements in the UEFA European Championships are not particularly impressive. Their first appearance was as hosts at Euro 2008, but the Austrian national team have since successfully qualified for Euro 2016, Euro 2020, and Euro 2024.
Austria’s best performance came at Euro 2020. They progressed to the knockout stages for the first time in their history after beating both Ukraine and North Macedonia in the group stage. Austria came unstuck against eventual winners Italy in the round of 16.
Spain vs Austria Head to Head
Spain and Austria have no previous meetings in a European Championship, but they have met on four occasions in Euro qualifying groups. La Roja won all four of those meetings, beating Austria 9-0 during the Euro 2000 qualification process.
Austria last recorded a competitive win against Spain at the 1978 FIFA World Cup, beating La Roja 2-1 in Buenos Aires.
