The Curaçao national football team represents the island of Curaçao in international football matches. The team is managed by the Federashon Futbòl Kòrsou (FFK).

Curaçao became a separate country within the Kingdom of the Netherlands in 2010. Since 2011, its football team has played under this new status. Both FIFA and CONCACAF see the Curaçao team as the direct continuation of the older Territory of Curaçao (1921–1958) and the Netherlands Antilles (1958–2010) teams.

Team Journey: How Curaçao Football Grew

Early Days of Football in Curaçao

The first national football team from Curaçao was called the Territory of Curaçao national football team. They played their first game in 1924 against their neighbor, Aruba. Curaçao won that match 4-0.

In December 1954, the territory of Curaçao became part of the Netherlands Antilles. This new country included several islands like Aruba, Bonaire, Saba, Sint Eustatius, and Sint Maarten. The football team's name changed to the Netherlands Antilles national team, representing all these islands.

In 1986, Aruba became its own country. After this, Aruban players no longer played for the Netherlands Antilles team.

Curaçao's New Beginning

On October 10, 2010, the Netherlands Antilles officially dissolved. Curaçao and Sint Maarten became separate countries. The other islands became part of the Netherlands. Even though Curaçao is not a fully independent country, FIFA recognized it as a member in March 2011. It took over the historical records and FIFA ranking of the Netherlands Antilles.

The new Curaçao national team played its first match on August 20, 2011. They faced the Dominican Republic and lost 1-0.

Big Moments and Wins

During the qualifiers for the 2018 FIFA World Cup, Curaçao had a big success. They beat Cuba based on the away goals rule after a 1-1 draw.

Curaçao also had a strong run in the 2017 Caribbean Cup. They defeated host team Martinique 2-1 in the semi-finals. Then, they played against Jamaica, who were the defending champions. Curaçao won the final 2-1, earning their first-ever Caribbean Cup title!
