Remarks:
• Ecuador had withdrawn from 1950 without playing a match.
• Ethiopia already entered 1958 but the entry was not accepted by FIFA.
• The Netherlands Antilles already played in the 1958 qualifiers, then still under the name Curaçao.
• Dutch Guyana has been called Suriname since 1975.
• In 1960, the Football Federations of Egypt and Syria had formed a joint association. Egypt entered the 1960 and 1964
Olympic Football Tournaments (as well as the 1962 and 1966 World Cup preliminary competitions) under the name of UAR
(United Arab Republic).
• Czechoslovakia split up into the Czech Republic and Slovakia in 1993. After the split, the politically separated countries still
fielded a joint team, the RCS (Representation of Czechs and Slovaks), for the 1994 remaining qualifying matches. First
entered separately as Czech Republic and Slovakia in 1998.
• Guatemala withdrew after playing two games due to an internal dispute within the federation.
• Yugoslavia became Serbia and Montenegro in February 2003, and in 2006 the two became independent from each other
and are now two separate member associations.

Facts & Figures FIFA World Cup™ 1962 Preliminary Competition
FIFA decided that goal average would count, a first-ever, designed to dispense with the need for tiring play-offs.
As a result, a more defensive tone underpinned these games.
Sudan and Egypt tried to rearrange their qualifying games to avoid the monsoon season. FIFA did not permit
this, however, and both teams withdrew.
Costa Rica’s 1-0 qualifying victory over Honduras was hosted by Guatemala who withdrew after playing three
games. The host’s ballboys were certainly enthusiastic, throwing replacement balls onto the pitch whenever the
ball left the field of play… at one stage there were three balls on the pitch simultaneously!
Luxembourg’s 4-2 win over Portugal destroyed the Iberian’s World Cup aspirations for 1962. They would come
back for the next edition though, with 19-year-old newcomer Eusebio set to become Portugal’s new firework.
