Background |
The fourteenth European Championship Finals were awarded to Poland~Ukraine on
18 April 2007 at the UEFA Executive Committee meeting in Cardiff, postponed from
8 December 2006.
There were five initial representations
bidding for the right to host the 2012 Tournament, however, on 8 November
2005, UEFA shortened that list to three following a series of votes. The
separate bids from Turkey and Greece were the countries eliminated.
Poland-Ukraine won the only round of
voting with eight of the twelve votes. Italy received four, whilst
Croatia-Hungary received none.
