The Estadi Comunal Aixovall, Andorra's home football stadium

The Andorran national football team (Catalan: Selecció de futbol d'Andorra) is the Andorran national association football team and is controlled by the Andorran Football Federation. The team done badly in international competitions, due in part to Andorra's very small population, the fourth smallest of any country in the Union of European Football Associations (UEFA). Andorra's first official game was in 1996 against Estonia in Andorran capital Andorra la Vella, which it lost 6-1. Andorra has competed in the qualification games for every FIFA World cup since 2000, but has had very little success. Andorra has only won a competitive match once, in 2006 against Macedonia.

In the UEFA Euro 2012 qualifying competitions the Andorran team did very badly, losing all ten matches.
