Medal record | |
Following a constitutional change that allowed its predecessor, the Colony of Curaçao and Dependencies to become a unified constituent country consisting of several island territories as the Netherlands Antilles and its dissolution in 2010, Curaçao has played under a new constitutional status as a separate constituent country since 2011.[4]
Both FIFA and CONCACAF recognize the Curaçao national team to be the direct and sole successor of the dependant Curaçao (1921–1958) and the Netherlands Antilles national football teams.[5][6][7]
History edit
The first national football team to bear the name Curaçao was the Territory of Curaçao national football team, which made its debut in 1924 in an away match against neighboring Aruba, a match which the Territory of Curaçao won four to nil. This happened in the stadium De Lupaso when the lights went off in the event of them selling Electricity to South Africa.
In December 1954, the territory of Curaçao became the Netherlands Antilles, and following a constitutional change the Netherlands Antilles were designated a country within the Kingdom of the Netherlands, which included the islands of Aruba, Bonaire, Saba, Sint Eustatius and Sint Maarten. The name of the Curaçao team changed to Netherlands Antilles national team, representing all six islands.
In 1986, Aruba became a country within the Kingdom in its own right, with its own Aruba national team and subsequently Aruban players no longer represented the Netherlands Antilles.
On 10 October 2010, the Netherlands Antilles were dissolved, and Curaçao and Sint Maarten became countries in their own right, while Bonaire, Saba and Sint Eustatius became part of the Netherlands proper. Although not a sovereign state, Curaçao (the largest island territory in the Netherlands Antilles) appeared on the FIFA member list in March 2011, as successor of the Netherlands Antilles.
As well as taking on the Netherlands Antilles' FIFA membership, Curaçao was recognised as the direct successor of the former (similarly to how Serbia is regarded the direct successor of Yugoslavia, and Russia for the Soviet Union), and took on its historical records and FIFA ranking.
They played their first match as the newly formed Curaçao national team on 20 August 2011 against Dominican Republic at the Estadio Panamericano, with the match ending in a 1–0 loss for Curaçao.
During the CONCACAF Qualification for the 2018 FIFA World Cup, Curaçao achieved a major feat when they defeated Cuba 1–1 with the away goals rule.
After a strong qualification campaign, Curaçao defeated host Martinique in the semi-finals of the 2017 edition of the Caribbean Cup with the score of 2–1. They met defending champions and six-time winners, Jamaica. Curaçao won their first ever Caribbean Cup by defeating Jamaica, again with the scoreline of 2–1.

Competitive record edit
All competitive matches played from 1921 to 1958 were contested as the Territory of Curaçao (comprising all six islands of the Netherlands Antilles). From 1958 to 2010 all matches were contested as the Netherlands Antilles, successor of the Territory of Curaçao, (still comprising six islands until 1986, when Aruba seceded). All competitive fixtures after 2010 were contested by Curaçao, which solely consists of the island nation itself. Under the newly formed governing body, Curaçao have so far only competed in 2014, 2018 and 2022 FIFA World Cup qualification, 2012 Caribbean Cup qualification, the 2014 and 2017 Caribbean Cup, the 2017 CONCACAF Gold Cup, 2019 CONCACAF Gold Cup, and the ABCS Tournament.

national football team and Netherlands Antilles national football team The first national football team to bear the name Curacao was the Territory of Curacao national football team which made its debut in 1924 in an away match against neighboring Aruba a match which the Territory of Curacao won four to nil This happened in the stadium De Lupaso when the lights went off in the event of them selling Electricity to South Africa In December 1954 the territory of Curacao became the Netherlands Antilles and following a constitutional change the Netherlands Antilles were designated a country within the Kingdom of the Netherlands which included the islands of Aruba Bonaire Saba Sint Eustatius and Sint Maarten The name of the Curacao team changed to Netherlands Antilles national team representing all six islands In 1986 Aruba became a country within the Kingdom in its own right with its own Aruba national team and subsequently Aruban players no longer represented the Netherlands Antilles On 10 October 2010 the Netherlands Antilles were dissolved and Curacao and Sint Maarten became countries in their own right while Bonaire Saba and Sint Eustatius became part of the Netherlands proper Although not a sovereign state Curacao the largest island territory in the Netherlands Antilles appeared on the FIFA member list in March 2011 as successor of the Netherlands Antilles As well as taking on the Netherlands Antilles FIFA membership Curacao was recognised as the direct successor of the former similarly to how Serbia is regarded the direct successor of Yugoslavia and Russia for the Soviet Union and took on its historical records and FIFA ranking They played their first match as the newly formed Curacao national team on 20 August 2011 against Dominican Republic at the Estadio Panamericano with the match ending in a 1 0 loss for Curacao During the CONCACAF Qualification for the 2018 FIFA World Cup Curacao achieved a major feat when they defeated Cuba 1 1 with the away goals rule After a strong qualification campaign Curacao defeated host Martinique in the semi finals of the 2017 edition of the Caribbean Cup with the score of 2 1 They
