missing games ?

[fred]

Hello there!

While the 1000th UFWC game is approaching, I'm questioning if it hasn't already been played, since I found on various sources, some other games from the past, that may actually have to be included in the count.

For a start, the first five international games, before the famous Scotland 0-0 England in 1872. Although those are not retroactively recognised as fully international, because of the Scotland's team mostly consisting of England based Scottish players. However ironically, the Scottish team of the first officially recognized game, were all from just one club.
I think therefore, that there is a quite flawed line, that makes considering the sixth game, but not the first five.
Those games were:

05/03/1870 Kennington Oval London, England 1 1 Scotland
19/11/1870 Kennington Oval London, England 1 0 Scotland
25/02/1871 Kennington Oval London, England 1 1 Scotland
18/11/1871 Kennington Oval London, England 2 1 Scotland
24/02/1872 Kennington Oval London, England 1 0 Scotland

Then, there is an unofficial friendly from 1891:

19/12/1891 Kennington Oval London, England 6 1 Canada

Two Olympic games qualifiers are taken into account for Nasazzi's Baton, while it coincided with UFWC, this is due to the fact that back then, because of a loophole in the Olympic football tournament rules, Eastern European teams were playing with their first team, therefore since these games were between two of them, they are technically A games.

19/11/1975 Stadion Za Lužánkami Brno, Czechoslovakia, Olympic Games Qualifier, Czechoslovakia 1 1 East Germany
07/04/1976 Zentralstadion Leipzig, East Germany, Olympic Games Qualifier, East Germany 0 0 Czechoslovakia

Another unofficial friendly from 1979:

29/05/1979 Lansdowne Road Dublin, Ireland, Friendly, Ireland 0 0 Argentina

Then there is a friendly game from 1990, some sources consider this one an unofficial game, but most sources don’t, and it also appears on the Netto's baton games.

30/05/1990 Stadio Renato Curi Perugia, Friendly, Italy 0 0 Greece

None of these games is actually impacting the route of UFWC, I'd be curious to know more about why they aren't included, while other unofficial games, seem to have been included.

I'm also wondering if there are other games that could be included, but aren't, please let me know, it's just for fun anyway.

Cheers!
