UEFA Euro 1992 qualifying Group 5

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Brussels, 1990: saluting the crowd after the last match. The draw for 1992 UEFA European Football Championship qualifying took place on 2 February 1990, with East Germany drawn in Group 5 along with Belgium, Wales, Luxembourg - and West Germany. On 23 August that year, the East German parliament confirmed reunification for 3 October. As the planning for the opening fixture away to Belgium on 12 September was too far along to be cancelled, it was played as a friendly.[1]

Group 5 of the UEFA Euro 1992 qualifying tournament was played as four team group consisting of Belgium, Germany, Luxembourg and Wales.

At the time of the draw on 2 February 1990, Group 5 had contained a fifth team, East Germany.[2][3] The first scheduled match would see Belgium play East Germany on 12 September 1990. On 23 August 1990, the East German parliament confirmed reunification would take place on 3 October. Accordingly, said Belgium-East Germany match, for which tickets had been sold, was still played but as a friendly and was the last match East Germany played.[4][1] All other games involving East Germany were scratched and fixtures initially scheduled for West Germany were now played as a unified Germany team.[5]
