After recovering from the devastation of this year's final, we finally felt ready to delve into the origins of the UEFA European Championships and Adam recaps the first three tournaments and their curious beginnings.

This is The Final Countdown. A podcast dedicated to all the great finals from the annals of football. Each week your hosts, Adam and Lewis, will do a deep dive (with a generous helping of nostalgia and humour) into one of the greats.
