HibeeJibee Posted July 5, 2015 Share Posted July 5, 2015 I don't think it actually counts as an official international as the Federated States of Micronesia aren't members of FIFA or the Oceanian FA. However, with the Estonian Cup and now this, a bad month for Arbroath. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eednud Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 After scoring 46 goals last game Vanuatu couldn't manage any this afternoon losing 0-2 to NZ in the Olympic qualifying SF. Fiji beat PNG 3-1 in the other. Final on Sunday. Fiji & PNG are also in the semis of the Pacific Games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nsr Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 They must be really bad. How can there be such a gulf in quality at that level? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HibeeJibee Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 They don't seem to have an U23 team and just put one together for this tournament. They don't have an active national team either, they're not FIFA or OFC members and seem to have last played at full level in 2003 when they lost 10-0, 7-0, 18-0 & 17-0 at a South Pacific Games.

Swarley Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 I really can't see them being admitted to the Asian federation. Oceania yes. http://m.foxsports.com.au/football/micronesia-video-vanuatu-score-46-times-in-pacific-games-clash/story-e6frf423-1227433459250 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forameus Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 There's a couple of highlights videos here, showing some strong defending, and even stronger goalkeeping. A bit of the story behind the team too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
7-2 Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 Micronesia should fix up a couple of games against the England women's team to get some wins under their belt and start building confidence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eednud Posted July 12, 2015 Share Posted July 12, 2015 NZ kicked out of Olympic Qualifying Final for playing an ineligible player. Vanuatu awarded SF 3-0 and meet Fiji in Final later today. The NZ player, Deklan Wynne, was born in South Africa and doesn't meet FIFA eligibility criteria. According to wickedpedia "FIFA statutes require a player who has changed nationality to either be born in the association's territory, have a biological father, mother or grandparents born in the territory, or to have lived in the new country for 5 years after the age of 18. As Deklan is 20, and does not qualify on any of the other conditions, he would not be eligible to play for New Zealand at any level until the age of 23.". Odd that he also represented NZ in the recent Under 20 WC and nobody protested. Although they only made it to the QF. Wouldn't have happened in Charlie Dempsey's day.
