Estonia national football team


Estonia national football team

The Estonian national football team is the national football team of the Republic of Estonia. Controlled by the Estonian Football Association, they played their first match in 1920. In 1940, Estonia was occupied by the Soviet Union and did not regain independence (and the possibility of a national football team) until 1991. They have yet to make their appearance in a FIFA World Cup or in a European Championship.
After restoration of independence, they played their first match against Lithuania in the Baltic Cup on 15 November 1991, and their first FIFA-recognised match against Slovenia on 3 June 1992, a 1–1 draw in the Estonian capital city of Tallinn. Home matches are played at the A. Le Coq Arena in Tallinn.
Ranked 85th in the world, their highest FIFA World Ranking was 60th in December 2002, while their lowest ranking was 137th in October 2008.
