The 2011 UEFA European Under-21 Championship was the 18th staging of UEFA's European Under-21 Championship. The final tournament was hosted by Denmark between 11 and 25 June 2011.
The Danish bid was chosen by UEFA's Executive Committee on 10 December 2008 in Nyon, Switzerland.[1] This bid defeated the other bid from Israel.
Qualification for the final tournament took place between March 2009 and October 2010.
This competition also acted as a qualifier for the 2012 Summer Olympics, as 3 teams qualified.
Spain won their third title after defeating Switzerland 2–0 in the final.[2][3]
