The 2014 FIFA World Cup qualification UEFA Group C was a UEFA qualifying group for the 2014 FIFA World Cup. The group comprised Germany, Sweden, Republic of Ireland, Austria, Faroe Islands and Kazakhstan.
The group winners, Germany, qualified directly for the 2014 FIFA World Cup. Sweden placed among the eight best runners-up and advanced to the play-offs, where they were drawn to play home-and-away matches against Portugal.[1] However, they lost both matches and thus failed to qualify for the World Cup. Germany went on to win the tournament, defeating Argentina in the final.
The dates for fixtures were decided at a meeting held in Frankfurt, Germany, on 17–18 November 2011.[2] The dates were not ratified by FIFA and a new schedule was announced on 5 December 2011 with new dates for the two matches between Austria and the Faroe Islands.
