Germany national football team results (1908–42)

This is a list of international football matches of the Germany national football team from 1908 until 1942.

The German team made steady progress from early heavy defeats to England's amateur squad, their best achievement of the era being a bronze medal at the 1934 FIFA World Cup, although they made little impact on other major tournaments. The escalation of World War II in the early 1940s brought an end to competitive sport, and Germany would not play internationally again until 1950, by which time the nation had been partitioned into rival West and East zones, each with their own football systems.
