1994 FIFA World Cup qualification (UEFA – Group 5)
The qualification matches for Group 5 of the European zone (UEFA) of the 1994 FIFA World Cup qualification tournament took place between May 1992 and November 1993.
Group 5 consisted of 6 of the 39 teams entered into the European zone:[1] Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Luxembourg, Russia and Yugoslavia. In October 1992, however, after their away game against Iceland and home game with Russia were both postponed, Yugoslavia was suspended by FIFA as a result of the United Nations sanctions against that country stemming from the Yugoslav wars. The remaining 5 teams competed on a home-and-away basis for 2 of the 12 spots in the final tournament allocated to the European zone, with the group's winner and runner-up claiming those spots.
Note: The draw was made on 8 December 1991, at that time 
Yugoslavia was not yet called 
Yugoslavia. Yugoslavia was excluded due to UN sanctions in connection with the war in Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina. Yugoslavia has been called Serbia and Montenegro since February 2003, and just Serbia since 2006. [2]
