3rd place

I think this is someone's joke or imagination. It didn't exist in Euro 2004. Either it should be added to Euro 2004, or removed here. Solar Apex (talk) 01:14, 30 January 2009 (UTC)

:According to article 2.08 of UEFA's regulations for the 2008 UEFA European Football Championship (UEFA Euro 2008), both losing semi-finalist teams received 34 bronze medals each to be shared amongst themselves, and – as such – are deemed to have come in equal third place. – Pee Jay 01:49, 30 January 2009 (UTC)

Europass ball

The article claims the ball was designed by Oliver Khan, Germany's former national team goalkeeper. It's safe to assume that he didn't design the ball (that's what Adidas are for), and this claim isn't cited. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 217.42.200.31 (talk) 02:36, 30 March 2009 (UTC)
