Croatia vs Italy

With his goal, Croatia's Luka Modrić became the oldest goalscorer in the UEFA European Championship final tournament.

Discipline

Fair play points would have been used as a tiebreaker if the head-to-head and overall records of teams had been tied (and if a penalty shoot-out was not applicable as a tiebreaker). These were calculated based on yellow and red cards received by players and team officials in all group matches as follows: [2]

Only one of the above deductions was applied to a player or team official in a single match.
