From 1960 up to 1976 The European Championships (previously The European Nations Cup of 1960 and 64) did NOT have a pre-ordained Finals Venue. Here is how it was defined ... Each nation who topped the qualifying group, then played a two legged Home and Away Quarter Final. The four Winners of those Quarter Finals would negotiate What Nation would host The Semi-Finals, Third Place play off and Final. From then on The Finals and Hosts were pre-ordained ... Italy in 1980 >>>
the final was pulsating affair. Funny that Czechoslovakia subsequently failed to qualified for 1978 WC and failed even to beat Kuwait in 1982. the regress was rapid
