The Bermuda national football team is the national team of Bermuda and is controlled by the Bermuda Football Association. A member of CONCACAF, it is not among its strongest teams.
They were runners up in the 1967 tournament of the Pan-American Games, losing to Mexico in the final.
However, the side has badly slipped down the FIFA rankings, losing to non-UEFA members such as Gibraltar 2-0[when?].
Bermuda earned their first win on home soil in three years - and a first at this level in 13 months - on December 16, 2007, against Saint Kitts and Nevis 4-2, in the second of two friendlies (after dropping the first match 2-1 to St. Kitts on December 14).

[edit] 2010 World Cup qualifying
Bermuda advanced to the second round of 2010 CONCACAF World Cup qualifying with a 1-1 draw and 3-1 away victory over the Cayman Islands. They followed with a shocking 2-1 upset at Trinidad and Tobago on June 15, 2008.[1] John Barry Nusum scored both goals for Bermuda. The second leg of the series was played on June 22, 2008 at Bermuda National Stadium, with Bermuda losing 0-2 to Trinidad and Tobago, thus eliminating them from the 2010 World Cup qualifying.
