International football competition
The 1986 UEFA European Under-21 Championship was the 5th staging of the UEFA European Under-21 Championship . The qualifying stage spanned two years (1984–86), had 29 entrants. Spain U-21s won the competition after a penalty shootout , the first in the U-21 competition's history.
The 29 national teams were divided into eight groups (five groups of 4 + three groups of 3). The group winners played off against each other on a two-legged home-and-away basis until the winner was decided. There was no finals tournament or 3rd-place playoff.
Qualifying stage [ edit ]
The allocation of teams into qualifying groups was based on that of 1986 FIFA World Cup qualification with several changes, reflecting the absence of some nations:
Group 1 did not include Belgium (moved to Group 8)
Group 2 did not include Malta
Group 3 did not include Northern Ireland
Group 4 did not include Luxembourg (moved to Group 8)
Group 5 featured the same nations
Group 6 did not include Republic of Ireland
Group 7 did not include Wales
Group 8 composed of Belgium (moved from Group 1), Luxembourg (moved from Group 4) and Italy (who did not participate in World Cup qualification)
