The Monaco national football team is not internationally recognized. It represents the principality of Monaco.
Monaco is neither a member of FIFA nor UEFA and does not participate in international tournaments. The goal of the Monegasque Football Association, which controls the team, is to gain official status. They are members of the New Federations Board, which organizes matches for non-official national teams, and have accepted an invitation to take part in the inaugural VIVA World Cup. In that competition Monaco finished second, after losing 21-1 to Sápmi in the final.
Monaco does, however, have a highly successful club team, AS Monaco FC, staffed almost entirely by non-Monegasque footballers. It plays in the French Ligue 1.
