Wales(Retro)

Nickname(s) The Dragons (Welsh: Y Dreigiau)
  • The Wales national football team (Welsh: Tîm pêl-droed cenedlaethol Cymru) represents Wales in international football.
  • It is controlled by the Football Association of Wales (FAW), the governing body for football in Wales and the third-oldest national football association in the world, founded in 1876.
  •  
  • The team has qualified for the FIFA World Cup twice, in 1958 and 2022.
  • In 1958, they reached the quarter-finals before losing to eventual champions Brazil.
  • They then went 58 years before reaching their second major tournament, when – following a rise of 109 places from an all-time low of 117th to a peak of 8th in the FIFA World Rankings between August 2011 and October 2015 – they qualified for UEFA Euro 2016, where they reached the semi-finals before again losing to the eventual champions, Portugal.
  • A second successive UEFA European Championship followed when Wales reached the round of 16 of UEFA Euro 2020.
  • They also progressed through UEFA Euro 1976 qualifying to the quarter-finals, though this was played on a two-legged, home-and-away basis and is not considered part of the finals tournament.
  •  
  • Historically, the Welsh team has featured a number of players from Wales' top club teams, Cardiff City and Swansea City.
  • These two Welsh clubs play in the English league system alongside fellow Welsh clubs Newport County, Wrexham and Merthyr Town.
  • However, the majority of Welsh football clubs play in the Welsh football league system.
  • Wales, as a country of the United Kingdom, is not a member of the International Olympic Committee and therefore the national team does not compete in the Olympic Games.
