Portugal had come back from 2-0 down in both their opening win against Serbia and their semi-final elimination of Spain, and they did so again to retain the title in the first 16-team final tournament, adding it to the FIFA Futsal World Cup they had claimed in 2021.

So long in the shadow of their neighbours, Portugal eclipsed Spain in a dramatic final. Bruno Coelho recovered from a first-half knock to equalise late on and then convert a ten-metre penalty in extra time with Ricardinho off the pitch injured; the Player of the Tournament having kick-started the drama with his first-minute goal (Ricardinho's seventh of the finals).

Russia had ended Spain's nine-year, four-tournament run as champions in the semis but in front of the largest crowd ever for a final were pipped by Italy. Eder Lima had given Russia hope with his eighth goal of the finals but, inspired by captain Gabriel Lima, the Azzurri were always on top.

Spain made it four titles in a row in an epic final. Pula seemed to have won it for Russia (who also held out for two minutes after Cirilo's red card) but Sergio Lozano's deflected equaliser forced extra time and his second flew past Gustavo in similar style. Borja made certain with the final kick, from inside his own half into an unguarded goal, on the buzzer. Spain's Luis Amado and Kike both celebrated fifth EURO titles.

Javi Rodríguez brought the crowd to their feet with an audacious back-heel to make it 2-0, his 99th international goal at the end of an incredible Spain career, and looked certain to lift the trophy when Lin made it three. But Portugal, in their first final despite Ricardinho's injury absence from the expanded 12-team tournament, launched a comeback. This was only thwarted in the dying seconds by Daniel, who like Javi was bowing out of international futsal after a fourth EURO title.

Spain, who had pipped hosts Portugal on penalties in a tense semi-final, became the first team to retain the crown as they overcame an Italy side who had conceded just once before the decider. Marcelo, who scored for Spain in their 2004 World Cup final win over Italy, repeated the trick and they pulled away in the second half before the Azzurri were given hope by goalkeeper Alexander Feller, beating the otherwise unassailable Amado from distance.

Hosts Italy thrilled a fervent home crowd courtesy of Vinicius Bácaro's free-kick midway through the second half. Gianfranco Angelini kept what remains the only final clean sheet as Ukraine suffered a second straight loss in a decider; they are yet to reach another.

Georgiy Melnikov's deflected opener was cancelled out when Alberto Riquer Antón finished off a fine team move. So this final was settled, uniquely, by a golden goal as the great Javi Sánchez scooped a loose ball in after Julio's kick-in. That added the EURO title to the World Cup, Spain having ended Brazil's monopoly of the global gong in 2000.

Russia won the first full official eight-team UEFA European Futsal Championship, and the hero was Konstantin Eremenko, one of the greatest scorers the sport has seen. His ten-metre penalty in the decider, which briefly restored Russia's lead in a frantic period, was his 11th goal of the finals. It came in a spell where it went from 1-1 to 3-3 in around two minutes, Spain equalising twice almost immediately after conceding. Come the shoot-out it was Eremenko who converted the winner, Riquer Antón and Joan having been denied by Oleg Denisov.

The six-team finals in Córdoba concluded the experimental UEFA European Futsal Tournament, which then attained championship status for its next edition. Spain and Russia, as they later did many times in years to come, reached the final and four goals from captain Vicentín, particularly the two that took it from 2-2 to 4-2 within seconds, gave the hosts victory in a thriller. Another legend, Paulo Roberto, also struck right on half-time straight after Russia had levelled. Eremenko, scoring twice and making the other for Russia, was sent off but would have his moment of glory three years afterwards.
