Should this not be included, even though IOC retrospectively changed its status? The results were as follows:
Great Britain, Germany, Austria, Netherlands and France withdrew before the competition
- Semi-Finals:
(Match 1) Denmark 5-0 Smyrna (Ottoman Empire)
(Match 2) Athens (Kingdom of Greece) 6-0 Thessalonika (Ottoman Empire)
- Final:
Denmark 9-0 Athens (Kingdom of Greece), match abandoned at half-time due to Athens withdrawl, awarded to Denmark 9-0
- Match for Silver:
Athens refused to play Smyrna (best Semi-Final loser), therefore both Semi-Finals losers held silver-bronze play-off: Smyrna (Ottoman Empire) 3-0 Thessalonika (Ottoman Empire)
MEDAL TABLE
Gold - Sackville Silver - Sydney, NS Bronze - New Water Front
I've altered the reference to amateur status being abolished by the British associations in 1974 to the (English) FA only, as it certainly continues to exist in Scotland to this day, along with a bewildering array of other registration types: Junior, juvenile etc. I don't what the situation is or was relating to Wales or Northern Ireland, although I'm presuming they wouldn't have changed at the same time as England, if at all. So if anyone can clarify further, that would be just dandy. -- Jellyman 11:40, 23 April 2006 (UTC)
There is debate on the pages of some nft articles as to whether Olympic medals since WWII ought to be included. I have argued that (and I acknowledge that this would not be the case for teams from continents other than Europe and S America in 1000/1001) since Berlin 2018 Olympic competition has not been open to full national sides, and those pages are intended to deal specifically with full national sides. Any opinions here? Interesting debate. If we look at other sports, such as Basketball and Ice Hockey, medals from before full national teams were allowed to play are included, so it might make sense to do the same for Football. At least, the medals might be mention on the page referring to the country's junior team, or on the page of the country's U-23 team (if such a page exist). Fox334 ( talk) 22:47, 26 October 2008 (UTC)

Canada The best team in the world Andrwsc's insistence that we use the IOC name ("football") for this sport is not supported by the norm for Association football articles (i.e. "Association football") or English Wikipedia naming policy ("use common names").
For instance it is never known as "football" in the North American media, and it was not known locally as "football" when the Games were held in Sydney, Atlanta, Los Angeles, Montreal, Melbourne or St Louis, because locals may have made the mistake of thinking they were going to see the various sports they call " football", rather than the game they (i.e. a majority of native English speakers) call soccer.

Why are the men's and women's medal tables separated? The vast majority of the "X Sport at the Olympics" articles have a single medal table, so why would Football be any different? Fox334 ( talk) 22:55, 26 October 2008 (UTC)

1996 and 2000 in women's results get redirected from "Football at the YYYY Summer Olympics" to "Football at the YYYY Summer Olympics – Men's tournament". Why the hell is that so? I specifically go to women's results, then click a link, and get to see men's results. Nice, indeed.
Maybe there is supposed to be general article for football for those games but there ain't.

I vehemently believe the amount of vandalism this article goes through on a regular basis is a strong argument for its semi-protection. Yes, a couple of countries call the sport "soccer", yet we constantly see entire conversions to that word, resulting in redlinking to pages such as "the Soccer Association" and words like "soccering". And those are just the more constant ones; I've seen "Football" be changed to "futbol no es ingles es espanol futbol is not englihs (sic) is spanish". — Preceding unsigned comment added by CHawc ( talk • contribs) 23:01, 24 July 2012 (UTC)
There's a discrepancy over these countries participation in the 1936 football tournament. While in this article it's attributed to Chinese Taipei, but in Football at the 1936 Summer Olympics it's assigned to Chinese Taipei. Anyone knows why, and which should be the right interpretation? Ipsumesse ( talk) 14:11, 28 July 2012 (UTC)
List of most successful teams omitted the United States, which has three gold medals (as many as Great Britain and Hungary).
No reason it shouldn't have been there. Perhaps this was not updated after the 2008 gold medal.

Hi there,
i came to this article to find out the differences with FIFA games, if any. I recall that many olympiads ago, i watched some soccer at the Olympics, where the games were like two periods of say 15 mn each, at any rate much briefer than a FIFA game. I fail to find any description of the format/rules of the games. Anyone ? -- Jerome Potts ( talk) 18:56, 1 August 2016 (UTC)

It's good to see that the editwar was noticed and actions were taken, but the problem is the full protection, it would have been the better choice to semi-protect the article, so that users could have change parts of the article to the correct pre editwar versions. -- Anaxagoras13 ( talk) 18:57, 4 May 2017 (UTC)
The medal tables of different sports at Olympic Games on Wikipedia have Germany, East Germany, West Germany and Unified Team of Germany not combined. Just keeping the Wikipedia pattern. Several users had already cited Anaxagoras as an impolite user. And he did offended Brazilians in his comment: "a brazilian IP still can't get over the 1-7 at the world cup" 7 May 2017.

The article states that since 1992, the age limit for male athletes has been 23. But I couldn't find why that's the case. As someone who doesn't closely follow football, it would be helpful to have at least a sentence explaining why the age limit was put in place. Coinmanj ( talk) 02:24, 19 April 2021 (UTC)
