Further Information
The UEFA
website has the results, match
summaries and tables for all qualifying groups and quarterfinal matchups, although its tables are incorrect in awarding three points for a win instead of
two and its summaries do not include lineups, goalscorers or goal times. A
correct version of the tables, along with the bare results, may be found in the Rec.Sport.Soccer
Statistical Foundation Archive. Match summaries that include
goalscorers and goal times but not lineups are available from
the archives of La
Gazetta della Sport. We are not aware of any website that
offers complete match summaries for the 1968 preliminary competition.
