Brussels, 1990: saluting the crowd after the last-ever match. The draw for 1992 UEFA European Football Championship qualifying took place on 2 February 1990, with East Germany drawn in Group 5 along with Belgium, Wales, Luxembourg - and West Germany. On 23 August that year, the East German parliament confirmed reunification for 3 October. As The planning for the opening fixture away to Belgium on 12 September was too far along to be cancelled, it was played as a friendly.

Group 5 of the UEFA Euro 1992 qualifying tournament was played as four team group consisting of Belgium, Germany, Luxembourg and Wales.

At the time of the draw on 2 February 1990, Group 5 had contained a fifth team, East Germany. As the reunification of Germany was confirmed with effect as of 3 October 1990, East Germany's game on 12 September in Belgium was re-classed as a friendly. This was East Germany's last ever international match, which it won 2-0.[1] All other games involving East Germany were scratched as the country had ceased to exist, with the East German FA joining the German DFB.
