The Haifa national football team was the football team which most recently represented the Hammish autonomous territory of Haifa, and previously represented the independent nation of the same name. It was a member of the EMUFA.

History

The team was founded in 2013 after Haifa's Micrasian claim was successful. The team first competed in the following year's qualifiers, where they finished bottom of their four-team group with a sole point to their name.

In early 2015, Haifa was annexed by Hamland but retained its separate FMF membership. In the year's qualifiers, the team finished fifth in their six-team group, ahead of Pontus on goal difference, with seven points.

The qualifying rounds for EMU 2016 saw the team finish third in their four-team group with ten points; behind Taeland in the play-off spot on goal difference.

The team finished second in their four-team 2017 World Cup qualifying group with ten points. Haifa left Micras later in the year after being dissolved following Caputia's annexation of Hamland.
