Slovakia at the UEFA European Championship

Edit links
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

As Slovakia along with the Czech Republic is considered to be the successor team of Czechoslovakia by FIFA and UEFA, they have qualified for a UEFA European Championship six times; three as Czechoslovakia and three as an independent nation since the dissolution of Czechoslovakia and its national team in 1993.[1][2] As an independent nation, they directly qualified in 2016 after finishing second in their qualifying group. For the draw of the end stage that took place on 12 December 2015, they were seeded in Pot 3.[3] As Czechoslovakia, they became European champions in 1976, with eight Slovaks in starting eleven. As Slovakia, their best finish was reaching the round of 16 at Euro 2016 and Euro 2024.
