2006 World Cup Match Schedule I — bird-eye view

(overall references: using country-name abbreviations, below, or country flags, whichever you find easier, for match-reference at a glance)

The match-schedule overview, below, can come in very handy, when you wish to choose the match(es) you are going to watch, on a particular day, as well as when you wish to get planned in advance.

For you find just about all the pertinent information on the same page: the dates, on the left column, and the stadia, across. The dark horizontal lines (below and in Part IIb) separate the different World Cup stages (First Round, Round of Sixteen, Quarter-Finals, Semi-Finals, and Final Matches – both the 3rd.place Match and the Final Match proper). The only information that could not fit, below, is the time for each match and the match number, both of which you can access by clicking on any of the links given just above.

Also available is a page (in this sub-Section) displaying information on the abbreviations you see below. Here's a link to the page just mentioned, should you wish to check a given Nation's abbreviation.

Finally, right below the Table that follows, the provisional letters and numbers (used to refer to matches the contenders of which are not yet known) are explained, for your convenience.

World Cup Match Line

Provisional references, above:


1A...1H: top Squad per Group	2A...2H: 2nd placed Squad per Group	(in parentheses): match Nr.⁄letter

All match Nr.⁄letter references, above:

when in parentheses, they provisionally serve to identify the match indicated right above them – these matches take place in the Round of Sixteen (matches identified by numbers in parentheses) and in the Quarter-Finals (matches identified by letters in parentheses);
when no parentheses are used, a pair of numbers⁄letters (between which appears an " x ") identify Squads playing in the Quarter- and Semi-Finals, and these numbers⁄letters refer, each, back to the winner of the respective match played in the Round of Sixteen or the Quarter Finals.
All these provisional references just spelled out will of course be updated (i.e., substituted by the proper country-name reference abbreviation), as the World Cup gets underway and match results become known. So, stay tuned!
