Sweden
Euro 2012 was Sweden's fourth consecutive European Championships. Their best performance came at Euro 92 where they managed to progress through to the semi-final stage. They have managed to qualify for the last four European Championships but have not yet progressed further than they did in their debut run out.
Sweden were knocked out of Euro 2012 after losing their first two games against Ukraine and England. However, they managed to leave the tournament on the high after beating favourites France 2-0 in their final game.
