Basque Country national football team results

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Remove ads

This is a list of results for the matches played by the Basque Country national football team (the association football team representing the 'Greater Basque Region', territories which are ultimately administered by France and Spain and their respective governing bodies in the sport), including unofficial friendly fixtures against full FIFA international teams, others against fellow representative teams which are not aligned to FIFA, and matches against professional clubs.[1][2]

Since the 1990s, they have concentrated on arranging fixtures likely to improve perception of the team being accepted as a full international selection, as opposed to entering competitions for regions such as the CONIFA World Football Cup.
