Cesc Fàbregas, scorer of winning penalties for Spain in shoot-outs in two different tournaments (2008 and 2012)
  • Penalty shoot-outs were introduced to the UEFA European Championship in 1976.
  • Before 1976, there were 17 matches during the first four tournaments from 1960 to 1972: 16 scheduled matches ( four per tournament ) and 1 replay match. Only 2 of those matches were not decided within 120 minutes. The Euro 1968 semi-final between Italy and the Soviet Union was decided by coin toss. When the Euro 1968 final between Italy and Yugoslavia was level after 120 minutes, a replay was scheduled instead of a coin toss. Both the semi-final coin toss and the final replay were won by Italy, the hosts.
  • Since 2004, if only two teams finish the group stage with the same record (points as well as goals scored and conceded), and they drew against each other on the final matchday, a penalty shoot-out would be used to determine their final ranking. However, no such instance has yet occurred.[3]
