No banned substances were detected among the 300 doping controls carried out during Euro 2008, the director of the Vienna/Seibersdorf laboratory Gunter Gmeiner confirmed on Tuesday.
What was special about this Euro was the high level of controls carried out, Gmeiner told a press conference here.
Tests were carried out by both the Vienna/Seibersdorf laboratory and a laboratory in Lausanne, which was also accredited by the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA).
Ten players from each of the 16 teams were controlled during the early rounds and then two per team for the final phase of competition from June 7-29.
And for the first time samples of both blood and urine were taken and controls included an automatic test for the blood booster erythropoietin (EPO).
