This 1976 UEFA European Championship Group Two (featuring Austria, Wales, Hungary and Luxembourg) appeared to be a contest between the more experienced Hungarians with their Austrian neighbors as likely challengers.
Hungary would have problems at the Managerial front as Jozsef Boszik would have to withdraw due to illness just prior to the start of the qualifiers and three Managers followed (Ede Moor, Janos Szocs and ultimately Lajos Baroti).
Austria would also have managerial problems as their won as Leopold Stasny would resign after losing at Hungary in September 1975.
Wales, after losing its opening match to Austria (1-2), would go on and win all their other games to win the group convincingly. The highlight of their qualification was perhaps the win in Budapest in April 1975 that confirmed their intent.
