The Gibraltar national football team plays for Gibraltar in international men's football games. The team is managed by the Gibraltar Football Association. Even though Gibraltar is not an island, it created its first official team for the Island Games football competition in 1993. They have played in this tournament regularly and even won it in 2007.

Gibraltar became a full member of the Union of European Football Associations (UEFA) in May 2013. This meant they could play in the UEFA European Championship, starting with the 2016 tournament. On May 13, 2016, Gibraltar also joined FIFA, the world's football governing body. Gibraltar is one of the smallest UEFA members by population and the smallest by land area.

History of Gibraltar Football

Early Days Before UEFA

Gibraltar's first unofficial national match was against Jersey in the 1993 Island Games. They lost this game 2–1. Before this, the team played friendly matches against professional and amateur clubs. Their biggest unofficial win was a huge 19–0 victory against Sark.

The Gibraltar national football team's history goes back to April 1923. They traveled to Spain to play friendly matches against club teams like Sevilla. They even managed a draw against Real Madrid in 1949.

Island Games Success

Before joining UEFA, Gibraltar often competed in the Island Games. Their first time in the competition was in 1993. They lost all their matches and finished last.

However, they did much better in the 1995 Island Games, which they hosted. After losing their first game, Gibraltar won their first competitive match against the Isle of Man. They reached the semi-finals and then the final, but lost to the Isle of Wight 1–0.

In the 2003 tournament, Gibraltar had their biggest win ever, beating Sark 19–0. They also won the 2007 edition, which was a big achievement.

FIFI "Wild Cup" and Four Nations Tournament

In 2006, Gibraltar took part in the 2006 FIFI Wild Cup, a special tournament for teams not part of FIFA. They drew 1–1 with the hosts, the 'Republic of St. Pauli', and then beat Tibet 5–0. They finished third in the tournament, which was a good result.

In 2008, Gibraltar was invited to play in The Four Nations Tournament. This was the biggest senior football tournament they had ever played in. Even though they finished last, they played well against stronger teams like England C.

Joining UEFA and FIFA

How Gibraltar Joined UEFA

Gibraltar first tried to join UEFA in 1999, but Spain strongly opposed it. Spain claimed ownership of Gibraltar and worried that letting Gibraltar join would encourage other regions to apply. The issue was voted on again in 2007, but only England, Scotland, and Wales supported Gibraltar.

UEFA then made new rules saying only countries recognized by the United Nations could join. However, Gibraltar's Football Association went to the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) twice. CAS ruled that Gibraltar couldn't be refused membership because the new rules came after their first applications.

Because of this, the Gibraltar Football Association (GFA) became a full UEFA member on May 24, 2013. Only Spain and Belarus voted against it. This made Gibraltar the smallest UEFA member by population. This big step meant Gibraltar could now enter qualification tournaments for the European Championship. They were kept separate from Spain in qualifying groups to avoid political issues.

After joining UEFA, the GFA changed its rules for choosing players. Players could now be picked if they were born in Gibraltar, had Gibraltarian parents or grandparents, or had gone to school there for five years. This allowed players like former Manchester United defender Danny Higginbotham to play for Gibraltar.

Gibraltar's first official international match was a 0–0 friendly draw against Slovakia on November 19, 2013. For the Euro 2016 qualifiers, Gibraltar was placed in Group D with strong teams like Germany and Poland.

First UEFA Wins and Goals

In June 2014, Gibraltar got their first ever win under UEFA, beating Malta 1–0. The goal was scored by Kyle Casciaro.

On September 7, 2014, Gibraltar played their first competitive match in the Euro 2016 qualifiers against Poland. They lost 7–0. On March 29, 2015, Gibraltar scored their first goal in a competitive international match. Lee Casciaro scored against Scotland at Hampden Park. Scotland still won 6–1. Gibraltar finished their first qualifying campaign with zero points.

Becoming a FIFA Member

After joining UEFA, the GFA wanted to become a full FIFA member to play in World Cup qualifiers. In September 2014, their application was denied because Gibraltar was not an independent country.

The GFA appealed to the Court of Arbitration for Sport again. On May 2, 2016, CAS ruled that FIFA had to accept Gibraltar's application. On May 13, 2016, Gibraltar was accepted as the 211th member of FIFA, with 172 votes in favor.

Playing as a FIFA Member

Gibraltar played in World Cup qualifiers for the first time for the 2018 tournament. They were added to Group H. On September 6, 2016, Liam Walker scored Gibraltar's first World Cup qualifying goal in a 1–4 loss to Greece. Gibraltar lost all their matches in this campaign.

On March 25, 2018, Gibraltar achieved their first victory as a FIFA member in a friendly match against Latvia, winning 1–0 at Victoria Stadium. This was their second official win and their first at home.

Gibraltar's first win in an official competitive game came in the 2018–19 Nations League. They won 1–0 away against Armenia. Three days later, they won again, beating Liechtenstein 2–1 at home.

In the 2020–21 Nations League, Gibraltar won their group and were promoted to League C. They had two wins and two draws, remaining unbeaten. In the 2022-23 edition, they managed an impressive 1–1 draw with Bulgaria, earning their first point in League C. However, they were later relegated back to League D after losing a play-out against Lithuania.

On November 18, 2023, Gibraltar suffered their biggest defeat ever, losing 0–14 to France during the UEFA Euro 2024 qualifiers.

Stadium

The Gibraltar national team plays its home games at Victoria Stadium. This stadium has 5,000 seats and is Gibraltar's national stadium.

Because the Victoria Stadium didn't meet UEFA's requirements for competitive matches, the team played its home games at Estádio Algarve in Portugal from 2013 to 2018. However, UEFA allowed them to use Victoria Stadium for friendly matches.

Over the years, many improvements were made to Victoria Stadium, including new turf and lighting. These changes allowed for UEFA Champions League and Europa League matches to be played there.

In 2017, the Gibraltar FA bought Victoria Stadium and planned to rebuild it to meet UEFA standards. The stadium was approved to host UEFA Euro 2020 qualifying games in March 2020. However, due to delays, Gibraltar had to play competitive games in Portugal again from March 2023 while their home stadium is rebuilt. In May 2024, UEFA allowed their 2024–25 UEFA Nations League games to be played at the Europa Point Stadium within the Europa Sports Park.
