Czech political journalist and commentator Jindřich Šídlo has described the 1976 European Football Championship title as the "second biggest theft" by the Czech Republic from Slovakia. Šídlo, known for his political commentary and longtime support of Arsenal football club, made the remarks in an interview discussing both football and political topics. The statement refers to the shared Czechoslovak victory at the 1976 tournament, suggesting it should be attributed to Slovakia rather than claimed by the Czech Republic after the countries' peaceful separation in 1993.
