Notes

A. ^ RSSSF [67] list three matches played in Hong Kong in 1949, 1950 and 1953 between "China" and South Korea whose status is not officially recognized by FIFA.
B. ^ Prior to Algerian independence in 1962, matches were organised under the auspices of the Front de Libération Nationale. [48] [68]
C. ^ There is some confusion as to the order and results of the two matches played between Cambodia and Malaya in the 1956 Asian Cup Qualification tournament. The RFFFS page for Cambodia [40] shows Cambodia losing 2–3 to Malaya on 17 March and losing 2–9 to Malaya on 24 April, with both matches played in Malaya. The Elo site for Cambodia [69] shows the same results, but with the match on 17 March being played in Cambodia. The RFFFS page for the Asian Cup shows the matches as 9–2 to Malaya on 17 March (played in Malaya) and 3–2 to Cambodia on 24 April (played in Cambodia). [70] As the Elo rankings are based on Cambodia losing both matches, this is assumed to be correct
D. ^ The RSSSF page for Saudi Arabia [71] lists the first match as being played on 20 October 1957 against Syria in the 1957 Pan Arab Games, whereas the RSSSF article on these games lists the first match as being played against the hosts, Lebanon, on 18 October. [72] This is supported by the Elo page for Saudi Arabia. [50]

<span class="mw-page-title-main">North Vietnam national football team</span> National association football team

The Democratic Republic of Vietnam national football team was the national team of the Communist-controlled Democratic Republic of Vietnam from 1954 to 1976. It existed side by side with a separate South Vietnam team, which represented the Western-aligned southern portion of Vietnam. Unlike South Vietnam, North Vietnam's lack of diplomatic recognition on the part of many other states prevented it from ever joining either FIFA or the AFC. Due to its lack of membership in major football bodies, North Vietnam never participated in qualification for the FIFA World Cup or the AFC Asian Cup. Because of North Vietnam's international isolation, its national team mostly played against other Communist and Communist-sympathizing countries during its relatively short-lived existence.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Mongolia national football team results</span> Mongolia national football team

The Mongolia national football team represents Mongolia in international football under the control of the Mongolian Football Federation (MFF). Founded in 1959, the federation was inactive between 1961 and 1997 and the men's national team did not feature in any international fixtures during that time. The federation was reorganised in 1997 and joined the AFC the same year. In 1998 the federation became a full member of FIFA, the international governing body for the sport. The MFF joined the EAFF as one of eight founding members in May 2002. Because of the harsh climate and a lack of suitable venues, the team has hosted few home matches in the past. However, in 2002 the MFF, with assistance from FIFA, began developing facilities in the country, including the creation of the 5,000-seat MFF Football Centre, which will allow the team to play more matches in Mongolia. About Mongolia's relatively low number of matches played, former national team player and coach Zorigtyn Battulga said, "Lack of games is a problem. No one will come to Mongolia in December and for us to fly to other countries is very expensive so it’s hard to arrange official matches."

This match resulted in Japan's largest victory and the Philippines' worst defeat in an international football match. The Philippines' previous record for its worst defeat was 1–15 against Malaya at the 1962 Asian Games. Japan also suffered its worst defeat to the Philippines with the score 2–15 on 10 May 1917, but that is not recognized as an official international match by the Japan Football Association.
