I'm sure you know who the current winner is but do you know who UEFA Euro past winners are?
It used to be called UEFA European Championship, the quadrennial tournament is held between member countries of the Union of European Football Associations (UEFA).
After the FIFA World Cup, this is the second most prestigious international football tournament for the Europeans.
The first European Nations Cup (as it used to be known way back then) was played in 1960, and at that time, they were just four teams.
By 1980, it had expanded to eight teams, and by 1996 they became 16 teams. Today, the number of teams participating in the Euro 2020 are 24.
Isn't change a constant thing?!
Let's now see the Euro winners list.
