The Men's European Football Qualifiers for the 1960 Summer Olympics consisted of two stages, the first single elimination tournament and then group stage.
[1] The IOC's rules allowed only one German team to enter.
After talks for a Unified Team broke down, the football federations and NOCs of West and East Germany agreed to organise a play-off between their teams.
Both matches were agreed to be played without spectators, and the sites of the games were announced at short notice.
West Germany win 4–1 on aggregate.
