The
Czechoslovakia national football team was the
national association football
team of Czechoslovakia
from 1922 to 1993. At the
dissolution of Czechoslovakia
at the end of 1992, the team was participating in
UEFA qualifying
Group 4 for the
1994 World
Cup; it completed this campaign under the name
Representation of Czechs and Slovaks (RCS). The
subsequent
Czech
Republic national football team and
Slovakia national football
team are both recognised by FIFA and UEFA as successors of the
Czechoslovakia team .
The Czechoslovakia team was controlled by the
Czechoslovak Football
Association. The team had two runner-up finishes in
World Cup (
1934,
1962) and a
European Championship win in
1976.
Czechoslovakia qualified for the final stages
of the 1990 World Cup and
shortly afterwards their national coach Jozef Venglos moved to England
to become
Aston Villa manager, although his
tenure was not a success and lasted just one season.
