2010 FIFA World Cup qualification – UEFA Group 9

From Wikipedia - Reading time: 6 min
Main article: 2010 FIFA World Cup qualification (UEFA)

The 2010 FIFA World Cup qualification UEFA Group 9 was a UEFA qualifying group for the 2010 FIFA World Cup. The group comprised the Netherlands, Scotland, Norway, Iceland and Macedonia. This group had one team fewer than the other eight.

The group was won by the Netherlands, who qualified for the 2010 FIFA World Cup without dropping a single point in qualification. As runners-up, Norway were in contention for the UEFA play-off stage, but their record was the worst of all runners-up, and so they were eliminated.
