Germany national football team results (1930–1942)
This is a list of international football matches of the Germany national football team [ 1]
Germany's best achievement during this period was a bronze medal at the 1934 FIFA World Cup , although they made little impact on other major tournaments. The escalation of World War II in the early 1940s brought an end to competitive sport, and Germany would not play internationally again until 1950, by which time the nation had been partitioned into rival West and East zones, each with their own football systems.
