UEFA Euro 2028

[edit]

@Snowflake91: UEFA Euro 2028 Must be the United Kingdom and Ireland only to abbreviate. --Patcha007 (talk) 12:37, 7 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

See above, the UEFA.com link posted by PeeJay literally says that England, Northern Ireland, Republic of Ireland, Scotland, Wales are the hosts of Euro 2028. Snowflake91 (talk) 12:39, 7 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Snowflake91: So why not combine the UK and Ireland? 🤔 --Patcha007 (talk) 13:03, 7 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Because UEFA don't do that. The UK is not a single nation when it comes to football. – PeeJay 16:17, 7 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Snowflake91: UEFA themselves refer to the UK and Ireland as winners of the bid and the hosts.[1][2] The national associations of the constituent countries are referenced as well, as they are responsible for the national teams and the bidding process, but when referring specifically to the host nations (as well as in the logo for the tournament) they state UK and Ireland.

Not correct, see UEFA source where it clearly says "2028: England, Northern Ireland, Republic of Ireland, Scotland, Wales". What is written on the logo is completely irrelevant, this "UK & Ireland" is just branding and nothing else, you think they're gonna write 5 countries on that tiny space on the logo or what?

Your source refers to the host associations rather than the geographical hosts. If we were to use that example for each tournament, Euro 2020 would have 10 flags associated with it rather than the Flag of Europe. It's not just UEFA, journalistic sources refer to the UK and Ireland as the host nations.[3] For clarity's sake I think the article is better served with 2 flags instead of 5, particularly as it's conceivable that some of the host associations may not even participate in the tournament due to the limited number of automatic qualification spaces AnimeBatman (talk) 15:00, 11 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Disagree. UEFA have confirmed the hosts nations as the individual countries and NOT the United Kingdom. Best to leave it as is. Euro 2020 is incomparable as it was a pan-European event to celebrate the history of the tournament. The individual host countries have been provided by UEFA as England, Scotland, Wales and NI and until a source appears from UEFA stating otherwise (as in this is the host countries) and NOT just referring to the UK & Ireland bid and marketing material, then leave it as is.

Additionally, if you go to the bottom of the article of the source Snowflake has provided, you will see quite clearly and simply that the final UEFA Euro tournament hosts for 2028 is credited as England, Scotland, Wales, NI and ROI - in the geographical term you claim is omitted from the source provided. Therefore, UEFA reference individual home nations as hosts, therefore, so should we. Goodreg3 (talk) 01:00, 15 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Spain has been wrongly put as Winners of Euro 2024 in Germany. Euro 2024 final will only be on 14/07/2024. Patoche-80 (talk) 22:26, 9 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

 Not done: I think you might have misread. Spain and Germany are listed in the infobox as the "Most successful team(s)", not "Champion". '''[[User:CanonNi]]''' (talkcontribs) 02:19, 10 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Just above that though is "Current Champion" which incorrectly lists Spain, but Italy is the most recent winner until 14/07/24 ShawstinAu (talk) 04:02, 10 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

My request is that is says the current champions of the euros is Spain when the current champions is actually Italy. They won in 2020 vs England. So it should say Italy instead of Spain 2600:1700:E561:510:D53:B3BC:EC4F:E3A0 (talk) 04:08, 10 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Slovakia

why Slovakia is awarded 1976 wins?? Czech Republic is the only heir of CzechoSlovakia 37.101.116.80 (talk) 12:59, 15 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Not according to the UEFA link they don't 92.9.101.1 (talk) 21:20, 2 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Both teams are the successors and it's easier to split the records with 2 teams than it is with 15 and 6/7 like it is for the USSR/Russia & Yugoslavia/Serbia teams. Also most of the starting lineup in the final were Slovakian. 92.9.101.1 (talk) 21:26, 2 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
