Overall team records
edit- As of UEFA Euro 2024
The system used in the European Championship up to 1992 was 2 points for a win, and 3 points for a win from 1996 onwards. In this ranking 3 points are awarded for a win, 1 for a draw and 0 for a loss. As per statistical convention in football, matches decided in extra time are counted as wins and losses, while matches decided by penalty shoot-outs are counted as draws. Teams are ranked by total points, then by goal difference, then by goals scored.[1]

Notes
- ^ Spain refused to travel to the Soviet Union for their qualification match, so the Soviet Union qualified by walkover.
- ^ Yugoslavia originally qualified for UEFA Euro 1992, but were later disqualified due to international sanctions. This is not counted as a final tournament Yugoslavia qualified for.
- ^ Greece entered the 1964 competition but later withdrew after refusing to play Albania. This is not counted as a qualification tournament Greece participated in.
Hosts
editFrom 1960 to 1976 the host was decided between one of the four semi-finalists. Since 1980 the hosts have automatically qualified, except in 2020 when every country had to qualify through qualification. Germany has hosted the finals in 2024.
