5,000 meters
Before the final long distance, Constanze Moser lay in front of her club mate Gunda Kleemann on the silver court. Again both runners started against each other. In the opinion of the competition management, when he switched to the inner lane, Moser prevented Kleemann. Moser was subsequently disqualified and thus lost her podium place, which was believed to be safe. Heike Schalling and Jacqueline Börner took the other places in the 5,000 m run. The German starter Petra Becker, who had qualified for the last run after 3 disciplines, set an exclamation mark with sixth place and a new state record.

Men
Final result of the grand four-way battle
- Shows the first twelve finalists of the all-around European Championship over 10,000 meters.
At the EM, Bart Veldkamp's star rose in front of a home crowd. In the strong men's competition with old master Tomas Gustafson, defending champion and compatriot Leo Visser, and an up-and-coming Johann Olav Koss, who became all-around world champion for the first time some time later, the Dutchman won two of four distances and in the end was able to win the competition with a small margin. The equilibrium of the competitors was also shown by the fact that there was only a good 0.6 point difference between places 1 and 5.

500 meters
Over the sprint distance, the Olympic champion from Calgary over 1000 m and all- around European champion from 1987 Nikolai Guljajew prevailed. Middle distance runner Peter Adeberg from TSC Berlin set a warning sign with 3rd place. Actually more at home on the long haul, old master Gustafson could be more than satisfied with a 4th place. Bart Veldkamp came in 15th.
