Although the team has been in existence since 1930, neither FIFA nor UEFA considers matches before 1988 as official. Faroe Islands pulled one of the biggest upsets in world soccer history, when they beat Austria 1-0 in their first ever competitive international on 12 September 1990.
How come the first match played by this team is mentioned as July 12 1985 ?? Anyone knows? FvS 19:17, 4 February 2006 (UTC)
- [1] The games prior to 1988 and matches against non-FIFA nations are not classified as official by FIFA or the Faroes FA. Mistake, first counted match was 24/08/1988. Will fix. First competitive match was against Austria. DR31 (talk) 19:43, 4 February 2006 (UTC)
Does the Faroe Islands have any other sports teams?
