The 1996 UEFA European Football Championship, commonly referred to as Euro 96, was the 10th UEFA European Championship. Taking place from 8th – 30th June 1996, it was held across England.

Germany won the tournament, beating the Czech Republic 2–1 in the final with a golden goal during extra time; this was the first major competition to be decided using this method. This was also Germany's first major title won as a unified nation, adding to the two European Championship titles won by West Germany prior to reunification.

This poster is from the original promotion of the tournament and was created by the official sponsor Mastercard. The brilliant & rare colourful style design features cut out figures kicking the ball around the world. See less
