Austria Trophy History | Still Waiting for a World Cup or UEFA European Championship Title

Austria's story so far

Austria are one of 160 national teams who have never won a FIFA World Cup or their confederation's continental championship — the same two-tier standard tracked for every team on this site. Best result: 3rd place at the 1954 World Cup, part of the 'Wunderteam' era of Austrian football.

What would it take?

To join the 51 nations already tracked here, Austria would need to win either the FIFA World Cup or the UEFA European Championship — the top continental honor in the Europe (UEFA) region. Both remain fully open: there's no ranking or seeding that rules a team out permanently, only qualification and results on the pitch.
