12 0 0 12 2 57 0 0,00% NOTES All games that were actually played are counted even though some were annulled later as, for example, teams were disqualified or pulled out. This is NOT the case when the games have been awarded a specific result (see below). Games are also counted if they played more than half the match with the result at the halt IF another result wasn't awarded afterwards. Please note that w.o. games are not counted. Games that were awarded a specific result are counted with the awarded result. Games that were stricken by FIFA have been counted by me if the games were played. Please also note that games decided by penalties are counted as a win or a loss NOT as a draw (but only if the penalties were used to decide one game (as in knockouts in the final competitions) but NOT if penalties were used to decide a playoff over two matches (as for example Australia - Uruguay for Germany 2006). The latter is for the obvious reason that one team can win the match and the other the penalties...I think that a game decided by general football deciding-rules should count as a win for one team and a loss for the other. By that I mean overtime or penalties. I do not count, for instance; number of corners, cointoss or fairplay as deciders as they aren't "general football rules" in my opinion. Specific country notes: A) BRD and Germany are counted as one and the same as is customary. It should be born in mind that Germany wasn't invited to the 1930 World Cup and wasn't allowed to participate in the 1950 World Cup qualification. B) DR Congo was called Zaire before June 1997. C) Indonesia was called Dutch Indies before their independence in 1949 and played in the qualifications and final tournament under that name in the 1938 World Cup. D) Zimbabwe was called Rhodesia 1965-1980 and played in the World Cup 1970 qualifications under that name. E) South Africa was banned from the World Cup up to 1990 because of the apartheid system but was allowed to participate in the qualifying in 1994 when apartheid had been abolished. F) In the Dutch Antilles results are not the ones obtained by the island Curacao in the qualifying tournament for the 1958 World Cup counted, where they (Curacao) played with an own team. Also, before 1986 the island of Aruba was part of the Dutch Antilles but has after that participated in qualifying on their own. G) The country refered to as Congo is here to be understood as the country with Brazzaville as the capital city. H) Burkina Faso was called Upper Volta 1960-1984 and participated in the 1978 World Cup qualifying under that name. I) Taiwan was called Formosa before and should have participated in the World Cup 1958 qualifications but withdrew. J) Saar is now part of Germany but was under UN supervision from the end of the 2nd World War until 1957 and participated in the 1954 World Cup qualifying on their own. K) Yugoslavia has the results of Serbia and Montenegro counted on them as I consider the country called Serbia and Montenegro as the last remnant of the old Yugoslavia. Italy's qualifying for the 1934 championships is counted as they weren't automatically qualified even though they hosted the the final tournament. The so-called group allocation matches in the Asian qualifying for 1974 and 1982 are counted here.
