1938 World Round 1

Like the 1934 World Cup, the 1938 World Cup was a single elimination tourney.


Romania        2-1 Cuba

Italy          4-1 Norway

Brazil         5-4 Poland (in Added Extra Time)

Czechoslovakia 2-0 The Netherlands

France         6-1 Belgium

Hungary        6-0 Dutch East Indies 

Germany        1-1 Switzerland
Under 1934 rules, Germany and Switzerland must play a rematch game.

Germany        2-1 Switzerland (rematch)

Sweden         --- Austria

The Anschluss forced the Austrian squad to abandon the tournament, so Sweden advances automatically.
