1998 FIFA World Cup Group B

Football tournament group stage June 2018 Group B of the 1998 FIFA World Cup was played from 11 to 23 June 1998.https://www.rsssf.org/tables/98full.html World Cup 1998 RSSSF 30 April 2026 Italy finished clear winners of this group with seven points. Injury-time equalisers for Austria, first against Cameroon and then against Chile, meant that all three of these teams could still qualify with one match to go. Austria were then eliminated after losing their final game to Italy (despite scoring once again in injury-time). Chile conceded equalisers in all their games, but their three draws were enough for them to qualify in second place and advance with a record-low three points.
