Hungary at the UEFA European Championship

As of 2014, Hungary appeared in two UEFA European Championships, both times in earlier editions at which only Europe's best four football nations were represented. At the 1964 European Nations Cup they finished third after winning their play-off against Denmark, and at Euro 1972 they placed fourth.
