Facts
- The Czechs played in their first qualifying competition as
the Czech Republic in 1998. But they have yet to qualify for a FIFA
World Cup finals under that name.
- Prior to that, Czechoslovakia had qualified no less than
eight times and had reached the Final in 1934, where they lost to
Italy 2-1 in extra time after leading 1-0.
- The Czechs reached the final again in 1962 and this time
faced Brazil. Once again, Czechoslovakia took the lead but once
again they succumbed as Brazil claimed a 3-1 victory. Czechoslovakia
had to settle for another runners-up trophy.
