The '''UEFA European Under-21 Championship 2007''' were held from 10 to 23 June 2007. It was the 16th staging of [[UEFA]]'s [[UEFA European Under-21 Championship|European Under-21 Championship]].

==Summary==
For the first time, a host nation was chosen ahead of the competition – the [[Netherlands national under-21 football team|Netherlands]], who were also the defending champions, were exempt from qualifying. The host nation was chosen on 15 December 2005. [[England]], [[Italy]], [[Portugal]], [[Turkey]], and [[Sweden]] also submitted bids. Of UEFA's 52 member countries, only the [[Faroe Islands]] did not compete in the [[2007 UEFA European Under-21 Championship qualification|qualification round]] for the tournament. That left 50 nations attempting to qualify for the seven remaining spots at the finals.

This was the first time that the competition's final matches took place in an odd-numbered year. [[UEFA]] took this decision with the will to give more visibility to the tournament, since during even-numbered years the competition was clouded by the approaching [[FIFA World Cup]] or the [[UEFA European Championship]].

The tournament also served as the European qualifying tournament for the [[Football at the 2008 Summer Olympics|2008 Summer Olympics]], with a place for the four semi-finalists of the tournament.<ref>{{cite web|title=De Sart wants Belgium's backing |work=David Bano & Michael Harrold |url=http://www.uefa.com/competitions/under21/news/kind=1/newsid=547429.html |access-date=June 18, 2007 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070921001039/http://www.uefa.com/competitions/under21/news/kind%3D1/newsid%3D547429.html |archive-date=September 21, 2007 |url-status = live}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|title=Match schedule |work=UEFA |url=http://www.uefa.com/competitions/under21/finals/newsid=474559.html |access-date=June 18, 2007 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070604222203/http://www.uefa.com/competitions/under21/finals/newsid%3D474559.html |archive-date=June 4, 2007 |url-status = live}}</ref> However, as England is not an Olympic nation, their team was ineligible for the Olympics.  Therefore, with the event of [[England national under-21 football team|England]] reaching the semi-finals, a [[#Olympic Qualifying play-off|fifth-place playoff]] was necessary.

In this competition, a new UEFA penalty shootout record was established.<ref>{{cite web|work=UEFA.com |title=Netherlands News |url=http://www.uefa.com/competitions/euro/news/kind=1/newsid=548583.html |access-date=August 21, 2007 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20071017163842/http://uefa.com/competitions/euro/news/kind%3D1/newsid%3D548583.html |archive-date=October 17, 2007 |url-status = live}}</ref> The semi final between [[Netherlands national under-21 football team|The Netherlands U21]] and [[England national under-21 football team|England U21]] finished 1–1.

After the final, some commotion arose in the Netherlands because several Dutch internationals with [[Suriname]]se roots carried the [[flag of Suriname]] with them during the ceremony of the European Champion in the [[Euroborg]].{{Citation needed|date=August 2008}} Dutch coach [[Foppe de Haan]] expressed the actions of these players as "inappropriate".{{Citation needed|date=August 2008}}

==Qualification==

{{Main|2007 UEFA European Under-21 Championship qualification}}
In order to make the switch from even to odd-numbered years, the 2007 edition was a shortened version, condensed from a two-year campaign into a one-year campaign. Therefore, a completely new qualification format was devised to eliminate the weaker nations early, and saw a decrease in the size and duration of qualification groups.

==Finals tournament==

===Draw===

The draw for the finals took place in [[Arnhem]] on 24 November 2006, putting the eight qualifying nations into two groups. The provisional dates for the group games are 10 June to 17 June 2007, with [[Heerenveen]] and [[Arnhem]] each staging a semi-final on 20 June. The final took place on Saturday 23 June at the [[Euroborg|Euroborg stadium]] in [[Groningen]].

The opening game was between the [[Netherlands national under-21 football team|Netherlands]] and [[Israel national under-21 football team|Israel]] at 10 June.

===Olympic Qualifying play-off===
The 2007 European Under-21 Championship also served as the European qualifying round for the [[Football at the 2008 Summer Olympics|2008 Olympic football tournament]]. Europe's four places at the Olympic tournament were to be filled by the four semi-finalists. However, because England, one of the semi-finalists, do not compete independently at the Olympics, following the group stage a play-off between Portugal and Italy, the two third-placed teams in each group, was arranged to identify the fourth European qualifier. Italy defeated Portugal through a penalty shoot-out booking their Olympic place in Beijing.
