Thatās the fifth
Phil Neal must surely be the only player to score in two different European Cup finals in the same stadium?
He is. Other than Liverpool in 1977 and 84, I think Iām correct in saying only one other side has even won the European Cup in the same stadium twice and there was a very long time lag between those two wins.
Eire are now the 4th team to have beaten Italy in both a World Cup and European Championships finals tournament. Name the other three?
First two are easy.
France 1998 World Cup and Euro 2000
Netherlands Euro 2008 and World Cup 1978
Can find the last off the top of my head so Iām presuming itās a former country like the Ruskies?
Fair play to Jamie Vardy for deciding to resist the gooner shilling and to stay with Leicester!
Correct. CCCP beat Italy in 1966 World Cup and 1988 Euro semi finals.
Which club hold the record for the club with lowest League placing in the same year they won European Cup?
It would have to be a team from the best league in the world, my money would be on Villa who I know had a very average season when they won the European cup.
Well playedā¦
Schweni makes a record 38th combined world cups and European championship appearance tonight.
Who are the other 4 that make up the top 5 appearance makers
Cristy
Klose
Buffon
Cannavaro
Klose is correct. He is second with 37. The rest are incorrect
Philipp Lahm is surely another one. Played in all tournaments from Euro 2004 to WC 2014.
Correct. Lahm is fifth with 34 appearances
Paolo Maldini?
Correct, joint 3rd with 36
Casillas?
Nope
Didnāt Lothar Matthaus play in 5 world cups? Surely he is on the list?
