TRIVIA ANSWERS

ANSWERS TO YESTERDAY'S TEN QUESTIONS

1. The co-hosts Belgium opened the tournament against Sweden, and won the match 2-1. Neither side managed to progress beyond the group stage however.

2. Portugal and Romania.

3. The Final was played on July 2 at the Feijenoord Stadion in Rotterdam.

4. Spain. They followed up an opening match defeat against Norway with a narrow win against Slovenia, leaving their fate very much in the balance going into the final group match with Yugoslavia. Their dramatic assault in injury time - with a penalty by Gaizka Mendieta and a last ditch strike by Alfonso - turned a 2-3 deficit into a sensational 4-3 win.

5. 14 goals were scored in the four quarter-finals, half of them in Holland's 6-1 battering of Yugoslavia. In the other three games, Portugal beat Turkey 2-0, France defeated Spain 2-1 and Italy overcame Romania 2-0.

6. Denmark fared worst of the Scandinavians, losing their opening two games by the same score of 3-0 to France and Holland. In their last game they were beaten 2-0 by the Czech Republic, sending them home goalless and pointless.

7. Patrick Kluivert scored the Netherland's third spotkick. Frank de Boer - who had already missed a penalty in the first half of the match - failed again in the shootout, as did Jaap Stam and Paul Bosvelt.

8. Norway and Slovenia were the two debutantes at Euro 2000.

9. All the teams in Group D were previous winners of the European Championship; France in 1984, Denmark in 1992, Holland in 1988 and the Czech Republic (as Czechoslovakia) - in 1976.

10. Sylvain Wiltord scored the equalizer deep into injury time, and David Trezeguet hit the extra-time golden goal to seal the triumph for Les Bleus.
