Italy celebrates their third European title

It began on 14 July and concluded on 19 July, with a single group stage played to determine the winner. It was the eighth time that Spain has hosted the competition, the first being in 1951 (in the city of Barcelona).

The national teams of five countries qualified automatically to participate with the host nation Spain in the final tournament. A total of 15 matches were played in the Pabellón Amaya Valdemoro, situated in Alcobendas.

With the host country, two European champion teams since the first European Championship in 1926 — Italy and Portugal — have entered this competition. The title holders, Spain, finished the tournament in second place. Previous winner Portugal took the third place.
