International Matches
All international A matches ever played by the Finnish national team are listed below. The following matches are listed separately at the end of the document and excluded from the head-to-head statistics:
1. friendlies Finland used to play against English, West German, and Dutch "amateur national teams" until the 1970s;
2. Olympic matches before 1976, if the opponent's domestic league was based on professionalism;
3. all Olympic matches between 1979 and 1988 (when there was a rule, according to which those European and South American players, who had previously represented their countries in World Cup matches, including qualifiers, were ineligible in Olympic football); and
4. friendlies played between Olympic teams in the 1980s.
The reason why these matches are listed separately, although officially recognized by the Finnish FA, is that either Finland or the opponent (or both of them) fielded a team which was far from the best possible. In this aspect, some of the matches played in the recent Mediterranean and Asian winter tournaments are also debatable, but because there was no rule preventing any player from being selected, all those matches are included in the main section.

Full Internationals Later Declassified
These matches were originally considered as full internationals by the Finnish FA (but never by the opponent). They were later declassified, the first one because the Dutch side was a regional team from The Hague district, the latter one because Brazil fielded their youth team.19.06.1934 Helsinki Netherlands 2-2 25.02.2000 Bangkok Brazil 3-0 [Source: Heikki Pietarinen for the Rec.Sport.Soccer Statistics Foundation]
