At the UEFA Euro 2012, Kassai officiated matches Spain vs Italy and England vs Ukraine.
This was the first international tournament where two additional assistant referees were introduced on the goal-lines.
During the England and Ukraine game a Ukrainian strike was cleared by English defender John Terry, but TV re-plays showed that the ball had crossed the line.
