player = The 1980 UEFA European Football Championship final tournament was held inItaly . This was the sixthEuropean Football Championship , which is held every four years and endorsed byUEFA . The final tournament took place betweenJune 11 andJune 22 1980 .Overview
This was the first European Championship in which eight teams, rather than four, contested the final tournament. Seven of these countries had to qualify for the final stage. Also for the first time, the hosts, in this case Italy, qualified automatically for the finals.
Because of the expanded format, the final tournament went through some changes as well. Two groups of four teams each were created; each team would play all others within their group. The winners of the groups would go straight to the final (there were no semi-finals), while the runners-up disputed the third place match.
The tournament generally failed to draw much enthusiasm from spectators and TV viewers. Attendance was generally poor except for matches involving the Italian team. The defensive style of play of many teams led to a succession of dull matches. Hooliganism, already a rising problem in the 1970s, made headlines again at the first-round match between England and Belgium where riot police had to use
tear gas , delaying the start of play. The only bright spots were the emergence of a new generation of talented German stars such asBernd Schuster ,Hans-Peter Briegel ,Horst Hrubesch ,Hansi Müller andKarl-Heinz Rummenigge , and the inspired performance of offensively-minded Belgium (around rising stars such asJan Ceulemans ,Eric Gerets ,Jean-Marie Pfaff , andErwin Vandenbergh ) who unexpectedly reached the final, only losing to West Germany (1-2) by a Hrubesch goal two minutes before time.Qualification
