2004 UEFA European Under-21 Football Championship

2004 UEFA European Under-21 Football Championship

The UEFA U-21 Championship 2004, which spanned two years (2002-2004), had 48 entrants. Of the teams to reach the final eight, Germany were chosen as the hosts.

Italy U-21s won the competition for the fifth time.

The 48 national teams were divided into ten groups (two groups of four + eight groups of 5). The records of the ten group runners-up were then compared. The top six joined the ten winners in a play-off for the eight finals spots. One of the eight qualifiers was then chosen to host the remaining fixtures.

The top three teams in this competition qualified for Athens 2004 Olympics, along with hosts Greece U21s.
