Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. Who scored Denmark's two goals in the final?

Answer: John Jensen and Kim Vilfort

The final against Germany was really a thriller! The Germans favourites apparently underestimated the Danish team, which traditionally hadn't been a frightening team. The two Danish goals were both shots from the edge of the box, and they were scored in the 20th and the 78th minutes.

2. How many goals did Dutch striker Marco van Basten score in Euro 1992?

Answer: 0

Van Basten had great success around these years at A.C. Milan and in Euro 1988 he scored 5 goals, yet in 1992 he surprisingly didn't score any. However, he did have a goal disallowed in the 0-0 draw against Scotland.

3. Who hit the bar in the boring 0-0 match between France and England?

Answer: Stuart Pearce

And neither of the teams surprisingly qualified for the second round. 26,700 watched this boring game, and one of them was me...(Che64)

4. Which of the following players broke his arm in his first game, and did not play anymore at all in the tournament?

Answer: Rudi Voller
