2007. június 6-án történt, Helsinkiben, Eb-selejtezőn:
"Finland's campaign confounded many, not least the nation's ornithologists. Playing Belgium in June they were struggling to get a grip on the game when a large owl, known as a Huuhkaja in Finland, swooped down into the stadium. Depending where you are in the world owls signify anything from misfortune to prosperity and for the home side it turned out to be the latter. After a delay of several minutes the owl settled behind the Finland goal and soon after Jonatan Johansson scored at the other end to help set up a 2-0 triumph. Huuhkaja has since been adopted as the team's mascot and nickname."

Ja, és az Arsenal-Villarreal az 2006, nem 2007...
Serbia is like Nokia: each year a new model, and it's getting smaller.
