Notes

edit
  1. ^ a b The Netherlands v Cyprus match originally finished as an 8–0 win for the Netherlands, but the match was marred by crowd violence after Cyprus goalkeeper Andreas Charitou was hit by a firework. Charitou was injured and had to be replaced, and the Cyprus players left the field in protest and refused to play. Eventually after discussion between referee Roger Philippi, UEFA observer Alfred Delcourt and team officials, the Cyprus players agreed in a written statement to finish the match, though under protest. The result was later annulled by UEFA, and the match forfeited to Cyprus with 2–0. After the appeal from the Netherlands the match was ordered to be replayed behind closed doors, which took place on 9 December 1987.[8]
