Title information Euro Summits The Story of the UEFA European Championships 1960 to 2016 By Jonathan O'Brien Key features • First truly comprehensive English-language history of the European Championship to appear in print • Draws on more than 1,000 sources for quotes from players, managers and other observers • Draws on the archives of continental European publications such as Bild, El País, L'Équipe, Gazzetta dello Sport, Voetbal International and many others • Features a wealth of fresh material unfamiliar to British and Irish readers • Each tournament is explored in depth, and every single match in the finals is covered individually, with full line- ups and match data included • Publicity campaign planned including radio, newspapers, Description websites, podcasts and magazines Panenka’s pearl of a penalty in Belgrade, van Basten’s volley of a lifetime in Munich, Gazza's agonising near-miss at Wembley: over its six decades, the UEFA European Championship has thrown up many of the most memorable stories in football lore. Now it gets the history it deserves. Euro Summits is the first full retelling of the tournament, from its tentative beginnings in the late 1950s to its elephantine expansion in the mid-2010s. Taking in the USSR’s early success, the grim violence of 1968, France’s cavalier feats on home soil in 1984, the sensational triumphs of no-hopers Denmark and Greece, Spain’s modern-day dominance, all the way up to Portugal's shock victory in 2016, it’s a panoramic portrait of an event that captures a whole continent’s imagination every four years. Dramatic, detailed and teeming with compelling personalities like Michel Platini, Günter Netzer, Hristo Stoichkov, Zinedine Zidane, Wayne Rooney and Cristiano Ronaldo, this is the complete story of a footballing event second only to the World Cup.

031129 156 UEFA Jubilee
Media Release Date: 29/11/2003 Communiqué aux médias No. 156 Medien-Mitteilung UEFA officially launches its Golden Jubilee Year European Football Union to celebrate its 50 year anniversary on 15 June 2004 UEFA today officially launched its Jubilee Year within the framework of the Final Draw for UEFA EURO 2004™. UEFA was founded at a meeting in Basle, Switzerland, on 15 June 1954, during the 1954 World Cup. Delegates representing 30 countries attended that meeting in the Hotel Euler. Shortly afterwards, Ebbe Schwartz of Denmark was named UEFA’s first president. Just one year later, the new UEFA fulfilled one of its most urgent priorities by introducing the European Champion Clubs’ Cup (the first five editions of which were won by Real Madrid), thanks largely to journalists from the L’Equipe newspaper. Another objective was met when the first edition of the European Championship was held in 1960. UEFA’s destiny in the decades since then has been largely mirrored by the evolution of these and other competitions. This story, through the subsequent presidencies of Gustav Wiederkehr (Switzerland), Artemio Franchi (Italy), Jacques Georges (France) and Lennart Johansson (Sweden), is traced in a new book to be published on the occasion of the Jubilee UEFA Congress in Cyprus in April 2004. The commemorative books are one of many special Jubilee activities planned during the year 2004. UEFA’s exact 50th birthday, on 15 June, will fall during UEFA EURO 2004TM in Portugal, and will be marked accordingly. To mark UEFA’s Golden Jubilee, each of the 52 member associations has been invited to nominate its most outstanding player of the past 50 years.

The Role of Football in Spain
THE PHENOMENON OF FÚTBOL IN SPAIN: A STUDY OF FÚTBOL IN SPANISH POLITICS, LITERATURE AND FILM Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Timothy Joseph Ashton, M.A. Graduate Program in Spanish & Portuguese The Ohio State University 2009 Dissertation Committee: Samuel Amell, Advisor Ignacio Corona Dionisio Viscarri Copyright by Timothy J. Ashton 2009 Abstract This investigation serves to demonstrate the multifaceted connection that the sport of fútbol has with certain aspects of Spanish society, namely, this cultural phenomenon’s long relationship with Spanish politics, literature and film. Since the formation of Spain’s very first club teams, the sport of fútbol has always demonstrated a strong connection with Spain’s historical socio-political disputes. These disputes have become essential elements in making up the very fabric of Spain and range from questions of nationhood, to questions of identity, culture, politics, ideologies and economy. Throughout this study, I address the dispute that has been taking place between the intellectual classes and the fútboling community and defend that although the relationship between intellectuals and fútbol has not been as public as fútbol’s relationship to politics, it has however existed throughout the entire history of the sport. Many intellectuals have deemed the sport of fútbol as an unsuitable topic for intellectual areas such as literature and artistic mediums like film. In this study, I uncover that some of Spain’s most highly praised literary figures had a passion for the sport which they alluded to, sometimes on numerous occasions, as central themes in their work.

The Republic of Bulgaria
Bulgaria . The Republic of Bulgaria Flag Coat of arms(motto: ‘Unity makes strength’) Anthem: ‘Dear Motherland’ Capital: Sofia Official language: Bulgarian Official script: Cyrillic Government: Unitary parliamentary republic Area: 110.994 Population: 7.360 million Currency: lev(BGN) Bulgar tribes, under the leadership of Khan Asparukh settled in the area between the lower Danube and the Balkan, establishing the First Bugarian Empire with capital at Pliska Simeon I the Great ruled over Bulgaria from 893 to 927. Simeon's successful campaigns against the Byzantines, Magyars and Serbs led Bulgaria to its greatest territorial expansion ever, making it the most powerful state in contemporary Eastern Europe. His reign was also a period of unmatched cultural prosperity and enlightenment later deemed the Golden Age of Bulgarian culture. Byzantine emperor Basil II defeated the Bulgarian army at Klyuch in 1014. The ruler Samuil died shortly after the battle, and by 1018 the Byzantines had ended the First Bulgarian Empire. In 1185 Asen dynasty organised a major uprising which resulted in the re-establishment of the Bulgarian state. Ivan Asen and Peter laid the foundations of the Second Bulgarian Empire with Tarnovo as a capital. The Ottomans Turks conquered all Bulgarian lands south of the Danube in 1396. Bulgarians were subjected to heavy taxes and a small portion of the Bulgarian populace experienced partial or complete Islamisation, and their culture was suppressed. In 1877 Russia declared war on the Ottoman Empire and defeated its forces with the help of Bulgarian volunteers. The Treaty of San Stefano was signed on 3 March 1878 by Russia and the Ottoman Empire, and included a provision to set up an autonomous Bulgarian principality roughly on the territories of the Second Bulgarian Empire.
