Great video ! One little thing about the 84 final you didn't mention. The Snapish goalkeeper Arconada who made a mistake on the Platini's free kick is very famous in France as we still name those kind of mistake where the keeper let the ball slip beetween his hands or under his belly an "Arconada" in French. Really great video i loved it !
Great video but a tad disappointed you didn't mention how Spain qualified in the first place for the 84 finals. On the last game of the group qualifiers Spain was ranked second behind the Netherlands with only one game against Malta remaining. A win alone though wouldn't suffice as Netherlands had the better goal difference. They battered Malta 5-0 and 6-0 having scored 22 while only conceding 6 resulting in a goal difference of 16, thus everyone assuming the Netherlands would surely qualify. Spain needed a victory by no less than 11 goals to qualify, so even though Malta had lost at one point 8-0 against Ireland this was still thought to be unlikely. Yet in the most legendary game in Spanish football history Spain won the last game of the qualifiers 12-1, ending up with the same goal difference as the Netherlands but more goals thus qualifying. This game is remembered in Spain to this day while the actual 84 euros and the run to the finals is mostly forgotten.
I agree, Before 2008 Spain was considered like England are now. They won one trophy and had been dosappointing at Tournaments Players such as Santillana, Quini and (less so) Butragueno are forgotten due to this.
There's very few things I love more than these types of videos, please keep it up! One day your channel will grow and I believe getting hundreds of thousands of views will become a regular occurence
Brilliant video, I was shocked to see it had 7k views considering its apparent high production value and the care & research put into it. Can't wait for part 2, subscribed

Great stuff. Takes a lot of effort to go into so much depth.
Great video, very informative. And very funny at times with the music introducing each Euro's host country, I particularly lost it at 13:46 😂
