Poland participated in two UEFA European Championships so far (as of 2014): the Euro 2008 tournament after ending first in their qualification group, and Euro 2012 as joint hosts together with Ukraine. Different from their performances at the FIFA World Cup, Poland did not survive a European first round yet but ended last in both group stages. They did hold Austria, Greece and Russia at draw games. ==Euro 2008== Poland’s qualification to the Euro 2008 marked their first appearance in the tournament. Despite qualifying for the tournament with an impressing campaign edging Portugal to first place in their qualifying group, the tournament would be a disappointing debut with one point from three matches. In a rematch from the 2006 World Cup Poland took on Germany in the first game. Although the Poles were far from dominated in the game and created many chances, the match ended with a victory for Germany with the final score being 2–0. Lukas Podolski the Polish-born German striker scored the two goals for Germany in the game. ---- In the second game Poland would take on the co-hosts Austria in Vienna. Roger Guerreiro opened the scoring for Poland in the 30th minute. Austria equalized in stoppage time in the 93rd minute after a controversial penalty, which the Austrian striker Ivica Vastic converted making the final score 1–1. ---- In any hopes of qualifying Poland would need a large victory in their last game against Croatia. However, Croatia went on to beat Poland 1–0 and eliminated them from the tournament. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Poland at the UEFA European Football Championship」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
