EM 1960

For the European Football Championship 1960 , which was still held as the "European Cup of Nations", Romania, which was coached by Augustin Botescu , was drawn in the round of 16 against Turkey and won the first leg in Bucharest 3-0 on November 2, 1958 , where Nicolae Oaidă scored the first European Championship qualifying goal for Romania. In the second leg on April 26, 1959, things got tense again: after 13 minutes the Turks were able to use a penalty that Lefter Küçükandonyadis converted to 1-0, and he also made it 2-0 in the 54th minute. But it wasn't enough for more and Romania was in the next round. In the quarter-finals, Czechoslovakia were the opponents and Romania lost both games. This ended the EM for Romania, Czechoslovakia then finished third in France in the finals.

EM 1964

Four years later, more teams than 1960 wanted to participate, so the round of 16 was preceded by a preliminary round . In this met the Romanians, who were trained by Constantin Teaşcă after missing qualification for the 1962 World Cup , on Spain . After a 6-0 draw in Madrid , to which the Romanians also contributed the last goal, his term of office was over. Under his successor Gheorghe Popescu , who was his predecessor, they won the second leg 3-1, but that was not enough to make it to the round of 16. Spain then also reached the finals, were allowed to host them and won the title for the first time. Popescu then ended his activity as national coach and became president of the Romanian Football Association in January 1963.

EM 1968

For the European Football Championship in 1968, group games were scheduled for the first time in qualifying . The Romanians now trained by Ilie Oană had to face Italy , Switzerland and Cyprus . Romania only won the two games against Cyprus and the home game against Switzerland, but lost the other games. It didn't help that Angelo Niculescu took over the position of national coach for the last game after the 7-1 draw against Switzerland . That put them second behind Italy, which did not lose a game. Italy then qualified for the final round, was allowed to take advantage of it and, with a lucky draw, became European champions. Niculescu then managed to lead Romania back to the World Cup after 32 years, but where the team failed to defending champions England and the eventual world champions Brazil .

European Championship 1972

For the European Championship finals in 1972 Romania could not qualify again . In a group with Czechoslovakia, Wales and Finland , with four wins, one draw and one defeat, Czechoslovakia was tied for first place, as two fewer goals were conceded, but Hungary was a little stronger in the quarterfinals. However, the Hungarians needed a third game on a neutral pitch. Previously, the first game in Budapest was 1: 1 and the second leg in Bucharest 2: 2. Since neither the away goal rule applied nor the penalty shoot-out was invented, both had to compete again in Belgrade . Hungary won this game with a goal in the 89th minute. This qualified Hungary for the finals, which took place in Belgium, but could only finish fourth there.

EM 1976

In 1976 the final round was held for the last time with four teams. The Romanians now trained by Valentin Stănescu failed again in the group stage , this time to Spain. Only Scotland could be relegated to third and Denmark to fourth place with the same number of points . There was only one home win against Denmark, all other games ended in a draw. The qualification was missed by a 2-2 win against Spain in the penultimate game and a subsequent 1-1 in Scotland, in which Stănescu was no longer in office. Spain won the group with three wins and three draws, but were eliminated in the quarter-finals against defending champions Germany , who then lost their title to Czechoslovakia on penalties in the final.

EM 1980

In the qualification for the European Championship in Italy, which was held for the first time with eight teams, the Romanians now trained by Ștefan Kovács met again in the group on Spain, Yugoslavia and Cyprus . Romania won two games, drew twice and lost two games. It was only enough for third place. Spain went to the European Championship as group winners, but failed there in the group stage. With the missed qualification, the term of office of Kovács as national coach ended, but he remained active as an official in the Romanian association. After him Valentin Stănescu took over the office again, but he could not lead Romania to the 1982 World Cup .

EM 1984

László Bölöni , Romania's first European Championship goalscorer

For the European Championship 1984 Romania could then qualify for the first time under Mircea Lucescu . In a group with world champions Italy , Sweden , Czechoslovakia and Cyprus , the Romanians surprisingly took first place. They only lost the home game against Czechoslovakia, but they won both games against group runners-up Sweden and only lost points in the draw in Italy and Czechoslovakia. In the end, they had one point more than Sweden and were allowed to drive to the European Championship finals for the first time.

Here they met Spain in their first game and fell behind after 22 minutes due to a converted penalty. 14 minutes later, however, László Bölöni , who became Romania's record international player with this game, equalized with the first European Championship goal for Romania and it stayed that way until the end. In the second game against defending champions Germany they lost 2-1 with two goals from Rudi Völler . In the last game against Portugal they kept the 0-0 for 80 minutes, but then had to accept the 0-1 and were eliminated from the bottom of the group. Portugal and Spain were in the semi-finals, but lost one after the other to the French, who became European champions for the first time. Lucescu stayed in office, but after missing the 1986 World Cup with Romania , he was replaced by Emerich Jenei .

EM 1988

In qualifying for the next European Championship, the Romanians were once again drawn as opponents from Spain, Austria and Albania . Romania lost 1-0 in Spain, but won the second leg 3-1. But since this was the only point loss for Spain, while Romania only achieved a goalless draw in Austria in the last game, Spain had won the group with one point more. At the European Championship finals, Spain failed in the group stage. Jenei stayed in office despite the missed qualification and led Romania to the 1990 World Cup , where the preliminary round was survived for the first time.

EM 1992

In qualifying for the European Championship in 1992 , Romania met Scotland , Switzerland , neighboring Bulgaria and San Marino , which took part in a qualification for the first time. Romania started the qualification under Gheorghe Constantin with two defeats, who was then replaced by Mircea Rădulescu . Under him, Romania then won both games against San Marino, with San Marino scoring their first international goal, but then qualifying with a 0-0 win in Switzerland. They then won the home games against the Scots and Swiss 1-0, but a 1-1 in Bulgaria in the last game was not enough. In the end, they had one point less than the Scots, who were qualified for the first time, and the worse goal difference compared to the Swiss with the same number of points. The Scots then failed at the finals in the group stage. Rădulescu initially stayed in office, but after a 4-0 draw in a friendly against Italy he was replaced by Cornel Dinu . When this threatened to fail in qualifying for the 1994 World Cup , he was in turn replaced by Anghel Iordănescu , who led Romania to the World Cup and there to the quarter-finals.

EM 1996

Postage stamp from Azerbaijan on the game France versus Romania

For Euro 1996, which was first staged with 16 teams, the Romanians had against France , Poland and Israel as well as Slovakia and Azerbaijan , who participated for the first time, qualify . Romania lost to France at home only, won six games and drew three times. In the end, they took first place one point ahead of the undefeated French. So both were directly qualified.

When the groups were drawn, Romania was drawn into the group with Spain. Other opponents were the World Cup fourth Bulgaria and the qualifying opponent France. Against the French, the opening game and the second game against Bulgaria were lost 0-1. A 1: 2 followed against Spain. With that Romania was eliminated as the last group. Iordănescu remained in office and led Romania again to the 1998 World Cup , but resigned after being eliminated in the preliminary round.

EM 2000

For Euro 2000, which now had of Victor Piţurcă trained Romanians against Portugal , the Slovak Republic , Hungary , Azerbaijan and Liechtenstein qualify . Romania lost no game and achieved with seven wins - u. a. a 1-0 in Portugal - and three draws first place. Portugal was also directly qualified as the best runner-up in the group. Despite the successful qualification, Pițurcă resigned from his position in 1999 after differences with Gheorghe Hagi and Gheorghe Popescu , the leading players in the national team. Thereupon Emerich Jenei took over the office of national coach again.

For the European Championship finals, which was held in two countries for the first time, the Romanians were drawn into a group with defending champions Germany, England and qualifying opponents Portugal. In the opening game against Germany, Viorel Moldovan scored the 1-0 after just five minutes. Mehmet Scholl equalized 23 minutes later, but it remained the only goal for the Germans in the competition. Since Romania didn't succeed in this game either, it remained at 1: 1. In the second game against Portugal they lost 1-0 with a goal in the fourth minute of stoppage time. Romania had the worst cards before the last group game against England, which had previously lost 3-2 to the Portuguese but won 1-0 against Germany. Portugal was already qualified for the quarter-finals with two wins and was able to spare some regular players against Germany, which made a German victory more likely. England reached a draw against the Romanians, who had to do without captain and playmaker Gheorghe Hagi , who received the second yellow card . Nevertheless, the Romanians took the lead in the 22nd minute through Cristian Chivu . Just before the break, England received a penalty which Alan Shearer , the top scorer of the previous European Championship, was able to convert, and in the last minute of the first half they took the lead. Dorinel Munteanu leveled three minutes into the game and a minute from the end the Romanians were awarded a penalty when Phil Neville brought down Moldovan in the box. Ioan Viorel Ganea , who had been substituted 15 minutes earlier, converted the penalty . Romania had won a European Championship game for the first time after eight games without a win, ending the longest series without a win in European Championship history. As the Portuguese B team sent the defending champions home 3-0 at the same time, Romania stood in the quarter-finals against Italy. Here they had to do without Popescu and Adrian Ilie , who received the second yellow card against England. Italy was one number too big and with 0: 2 they not only lost this game, but also Hagi with a yellow-red card . For him it was also his last international match. Emerich Jenei then withdrew completely from the coaching business and Romania said goodbye to the EM stage for eight years. Italy then reached the final, but lost it to world champions France with a golden goal .

EM 2004

After the missed World Cup in Asia , Anghel Iordănescu took over the office of national coach again, but he was also unable to lead the Romanians to the European Championship in Portugal. In a very balanced group with Denmark , Norway , Bosnia-Herzegovina and Luxembourg , all four games won - except for Luxembourg, which lost all games. Romania scored the most goals, but after Luxembourg conceded the most goals together with Denmark and lost their home games against the Danes and Norwegians. In the end, they had one point less than group winners Denmark and, due to the loss of a direct comparison, they only finished third behind the Norwegians with the same number of points. Denmark took part in the European Championship as a directly qualified team, Norway failed in the playoffs of the group runners-up to Spain. Iordănescu initially remained in office, but was dismissed in the current qualification for the 2006 World Cup and replaced by Victor Pițurcă.

EM 2008

In qualifying group G for the European Championship 2008, the Romanians met the Dutch , Bulgaria , Belarus , Albania , Slovenia and again Luxembourg. Romania only lost the game in Bulgaria, winning nine games and drawing twice. In the end, they had three points more than the "Oranjes" and went to the European Championship as group winners. The Dutch were also qualified as second in the group.

In the final round, which was again held in two countries, Romanians and Dutch met again, but only in the last group game. Before that, the games against the two finalists of the 2006 World Cup were on the agenda. The Romanians won a goalless draw against vice world champions France and 1-1 against world champions Italy, with Gianluigi Buffon holding a penalty from Adrian Mutu in the 81st minute . Since both World Cup finalists had lost heavily against the Dutch - Italy with 0: 3 and the French with 1: 4 - the Dutch, who had already qualified for the quarter-finals, were able to spare some regular players against Romania. Romania could not use this chance and lost 2-0 and since Italy beat France, Romania was eliminated in third place. The Dutch, who are now considered EM favorites, then surprisingly failed in the quarter-finals to Russia. Pițurcă initially remained in office, but was dismissed in April 2009 after a series of weak internationals and inherited by Răzvan Lucescu .

EM 2012

After missing the qualification for the 2010 World Cup, Romania screwed up the qualification for the Euro 2012 . In a group with France, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Belarus , Albania and again Luxembourg, Romania could only win the two games against Luxembourg and the home game against Bosnia and Herzegovina. Only France and Bosnia and Herzegovina lost, but too many points were left behind with five draws. In the end, Romania had seven points less than group winners France and six less than Bosnia and Herzegovina, which failed in the playoffs of group runners-up to Portugal. With the missed qualification, the term of office of Lucescu ended and his predecessor Pițurcă took over the office again.

EM 2016

For the first time, 24 teams took part in the European Championship. Romania was placed in Pot 3 for the qualification group draw , which took place on February 23, 2014. As opponents were Greece , Hungary , Finland , Northern Ireland and the Faroe be drawn.

The first two in the group qualified directly for the European Championship finals. Romania started qualifying with four wins and one draw, placing them in first place after half of the games. Despite this good start, Pițurcă voluntarily resigned his hat in October 2014 and terminated the cooperation with the Romanian Football Association. He was followed again by Anghel Iordănescu . In the second half of the qualification, the Romanians only had three goalless draws and a 1-1 home game against Finland. This meant that the qualification was open until the end, but with a 3-0 win on the Faroe Islands on the last day of the match, finishing second in the group, the direct qualification. With five wins and five draws, the Romanians were among the only four teams without defeat. Romania conceded the fewest goals of all 53 teams with two goals conceded.

At the EM you played the opening game against hosts France , which was lost 2-1 due to a late conceding goal. In the second game they met Switzerland and reached a 1-1 draw. In the decisive final group game they lost to Albania 0: 1 and were eliminated from the bottom of the group.

EM 2021

Romania had applied for the pan-European EM with the Arena Națională in Bucharest for three group games and a round of 16 or quarter-finals and was accepted for three group games and a round of 16. Like the other countries in which games will take place, Romania also had to qualify. The Romanians met Spain, Sweden, Norway, the Faroe Islands and Malta in one of the five groups of six . The Romanians, who have been coached by Cosmin Contra since October 2017 , could only win the games against the Faroe Islands and Malta. They drew twice against Norway and lost both games against Sweden and Spain. Until the penultimate day of the group they still had the chance to qualify directly, but then lost to Sweden, who qualified ahead of schedule as second behind Spain. As second in their group in the 2018/19 UEFA Nations League , they can still qualify through the playoffs. To do this, they first have to compete in Iceland in October 2020 and, if they win away, they would face the winner of the game between Bulgaria and Hungary. If they win that game too, they would play two finals in Bucharest, facing Ukraine , and the Netherlands in Amsterdam .

Records

• The only victory in a European Championship finals game is also one of the highest against this country:
  •  England : Preliminary round 2000 - 3: 2 (also 2: 1 twice in the 1982 World Cup qualifier and in the 1998 World Cup group game)

• The Romanian team did not suffer their biggest defeat at an EM tournament against any country.

Negative records

• Romania and Switzerland had the longest dry spell until their first victory at the European Championships with 8 games. In the last group game of EM 2000 against England, Romania was able to win an EM game for the first time and even qualify for the quarter-finals. Switzerland won a European Championship game for the first time in 2008 in the last game against Portugal, which was insignificant for both teams.
