In 2008, Austria co-hosted the UEFA European Championship alongside Switzerland — marking a historic moment as the nation appeared in its first-ever European Championship finals.
Led by manager Josef Hickersberger, Austria entered Euro 2008 as underdogs. Despite passionate home support and spirited performances, they were eliminated in the group stage, finishing third in Group B behind Germany and Croatia. They earned one point from a 1–1 draw with Poland, thanks to a dramatic late penalty from Ivica Vastić — who became the oldest goal scorer in Euro history at age 38.
Though results were limited, Euro 2008 marked a turning point for Austrian football, reigniting national pride and laying foundations for future development.
