Notes

In the 1908 Olympic Games, France withdrew from the bronze-medal match after losing in the semi-final. Losing quarter-finalists, Sweden took their place, and finished fourth.

Bohemia's application to the 1912 Olympic Games was rejected as they were not affiliated to FIFA.

Czechoslovakia were disqualified from the 1920 Olympic tournament after walking off the field in protest during the final. Though they had lost in the quarter-finals, Spain then qualified for a silver-medal play-off which they won.

Key: DNQ = Did Not Qualify, dsq = Disqualified, QF = Quarter-finals, rej = Application Rejected, rnd = Round, RU = Runners-up, SF = Semi-finals, wdn = Withdrawn.
