How it was won
France won the men's title at the European Team Championships in Zadar for the first time since 1998, beating Romania 3-0 in the final with wins for Alexis Lebrun, Félix Lebrun and Simon Gauzy. Germany beat Romania 3-0 in the women's final for their 10th title and their third in a row.
Romania's men were in their first final. France had ended Germany's run of 12 men's finals in a row in the semi-finals. In the women's final Annett Kaufmann beat Bernadette Szőcs 3-2, having not won a game against her in their two earlier meetings, and Germany's women did not lose a match all week.
