The 2022 FIFA World Cup qualification UEFA Group F was one of the ten UEFA groups in the World Cup qualification tournament to decide which teams would qualify for the 2022 FIFA World Cup finals tournament in Qatar.[1] Group F consisted of six teams: Austria, Denmark, the Faroe Islands, Israel, Moldova and Scotland.[2] The teams played against each other home-and-away in a round-robin format.[3]
The group winners, Denmark, qualified directly for the World Cup finals, while the runners-up, Scotland, and the fourth placed team, Austria, advanced to the second round (play-offs).
