Group A was one of four groups of national teams competing in the second stage of the 1982 FIFA World Cup.
The group's three matches were staged at the Nou Camp in Barcelona. The group consisted of three teams advancing from the first group stage: Group 1 winners Poland, Group 3 winners Belgium and Group 6 runners-up the Soviet Union.
Poland topped the group and advanced to the semi-finals, where they were defeated by eventual champions Italy.
The winners of Group 1 and 3 and the runner-up of Group 6 qualified for Group A of the second round.
