{{main|History of the Vegno national football team}}
The team was founded in early 2022 after Vegno's [[Micras]]ian claim was successful. The team's first participation was in the friendly [[2022 Krasnovlac Tri-Nations Series|tri-series tournament]] in [[Krasnovlac]], against fellow [[FMF]] newcomers [[Krasnovlac national football team|Krasnovlac]] and [[Pacary national football team|Pacary]], which Vegno successfully won after two victories.


=== The foundation and the first qualification at the World Cup (2022–2023) ===
The [[2023 FMF World Cup qualification]] rounds, Vegno's first competitive foray, saw the team top their six-team group with 23 points and qualify for [[2023 FMF World Cup|the finals]], where they advanced from Group D in second place with eight points. They then defeated [[Tiana national football team|Tiana]] 2–0 in the play-off round before being eliminated by [[Phinbella national football team|Phinbella]] 2–1 in the quarter-finals.
The team was founded in early 2022 after Vegno's [[Micras]]ian claim was successful. The team's first participation was in the friendly [[2022 Krasnovlac Tri-Nations Series|tri-series tournament]] in [[Krasnovlac]], against fellow [[FMF]] newcomers [[Krasnovlac national football team|Krasnovlac]] and [[Pacary national football team|Pacary]], which Vegno successfully won after two victories. The first team was led by [[Agostino Conti]] the first official manager of the national team, based on a strong backbone of players from the newly created ''Campionato Vegnese'' (Vegnese Championship), which would then become ''[[Lega A Vegnese]]'' the following year, with a much more complex structure.


After only 5 games played and none official, [[Agostino Conti]] leaves the national team in May 2022, replaced by former [[Sancrus FC]] manager, [[Fortunato Bongiovanni]].
After bidding successfully to host the [[2024 Copa Apollonia]], the team bypassed the qualifying rounds and also received an automatic berth in [[2024 FMF Confederations Cup|the year's]] [[FMF Confederations Cup]], where they placed second in the hosts' group with six points to advance to the semi-finals. There they lost narrowly to [[Senya national football team|Senya]] before also losing the placement play-off to [[Mercury national football team|Mercury]] 2–1 to place fourth overall. At the Copa Apollonia, Vegno finished top of their five-team group with eight points, by virtue of goal difference over [[Meckelnburgh national football team|Mecklenburgh]], leading to a place in the semi-finals. After a lengthy penalty shoot-out loss to Senya, following a 1–1 draw, the team then defeated Meckelnburgh 1–0 to take third place on home soil.


At the release of the first [[FMF Elo Micras Rankings]], Vegno was 22nd in the rankings and on 19 January 2023 following the draw for the [[FMF World Cup qualification|qualifiers]] for the [[2023 FMF World Cup]] in [[Mercury]], he was placed in Group A together with [[Hurmu national football team|Hurmu]], [[Çakaristan national football team|Çakaristan]], [[Krasnovlac national football team|Krasnovlac]], [[Ecclesiastical Mountain Republic national football team|EMR]] and [[Mataba national football team|Mataba]]. The [[2023 FMF World Cup qualification]] rounds, Vegno's first competitive foray, saw the team top their six-team group with 23 points and qualify for [[2023 FMF World Cup|the finals]], for the first time in their history at the first attempt. The 2-1 victory against [[Hurmu national football team|Hurmu]] at home was decisive, where thanks to goals from [[Rosario Bonotto]] and [[Danilo Mannino]], the team qualified from the top of the group without passing through the play-offs.
In [[2025 FMF World Cup qualification|2025's World Cup qualifiers]], the team finished top of their five-team group unbeaten after gaining twenty points to advance to [[2025 FMF World Cup|the finals]]. There, they topped their five-team group after winning all four matches to advance to the quarter-finals, but lost on penalties to [[Sanama national football team|Sanama]] following a 5–5 draw to be eliminated at that stage.
 
The [[2023 FMF World Cup]] represents the first major world tournament in which Vegno participates and in the group draw he appears in the 5th pot, as he is 24th in the ranking. It is therefore placed in Group D together with the reigning champions [[Floria national football team|Floria]], [[Calbion national football team|Calbion]], [[Unified Governorates national football team|Unified Governorates]] and [[The Hexarchy national football team|The Hexarchy]].
 
The debut at the World Cup took place on 11 June 2023, where the vegnese national team managed to surprisingly beat [[Calbion national football team|Calbion]] 2-1, thanks to goals from [[Anthony Boretto|Boretto]] and [[Paolo Vassena|Vassena]]. The second match of the group sees them barely achieve a 1-1 draw against [[Unified Governorates national football team|nified Governorates]], while in the third match of the group they beat the reigning world champions [[Floria national football team|Floria]] 4-2 in a memorable match, thanks to braces from [[Anthony Boretto|Boretto]] and [[Rosario Bonotto|Bonotto]], which represents one of the highest points of vegnese football. They then conclude the group with another draw against [[The Hexarchy national football team|The Hexarchy]] which allows them to qualify for the play-off round as second in the group with 8 points.
 
At the play-off round on July 30th the team beat [[Tiana national football team|Tiana]] 2-0 thanks to another [[Anthony Boretto|Boretto]]'s brace and qualified for the first time in its history to the quarter-finals of a World Cup.
 
However, the national team's adventure at the [[2023 FMF World Cup]] was interrupted in the quarter-finals where [[Anthony Boretto|Boretto]]'s sixth goal of the competition was not enough for the ''Cormorani'' to achieve victory. They were defeated 2-1 by [[Phinbella national football team|Phinbella]], still obtaining an extraordinary result considering the initial premises. At the end of the tournament the striker [[Anthony Boretto|Boretto]] is included in the team of the tournament.
 
=== The Confederations Cup and the hosting of the Copa Apollonia (2024–) ===
On 27 November 2023 it was announced that Vegno would host the [[2024 Copa Apollonia]], which guarantees the national team automatic qualification for both the Apollonian competition and the [[2024 FMF Confederations Cup]]. In the latter, Vegno is included in the hots's group, where faces [[Mercury national football team|Mercury]], [[New Batavia national football team|New Batavia]] and [[Sovereign Confederation national football team|Sovereign Confederation]]. Within the group he recorded two defeats, both against [[Mercury national football team|Mercury]], three draws, two against [[New Batavia national football team|New Batavia]] and one with the [[Sovereign Confederation national football team|Sovereign Confederation]], and only one victory, against the autonomous region of the [[Benacian Union]]. They finish the group with 6 points, which still allow them to qualify for the semi-finals as second in the group.
 
In the semi-finals they met the reigning world champions [[Senya national football team|Senya]] and were defeated 1-0. Vegno played their last match of the competition in the play-off for third place, losing for the third time in a row against [[Mercury national football team|Mercury]], this time 1-2, conceding the final defeat goal in the extra time.
 
They therefore closed their first [[2024 FMF Confederations Cup|FMF Confederations Cup]] in 4th place, with only one victory, two draws and five defeats.
 
On 7 July Vegno made its debut in the [[2024 Copa Apollonia]] against [[Daau national football team|Daau]], in the opening match of the competition.

The first home and away kits of the Vegno national team were presented in April 2022, just before the beginning of the [[2022 Krasnovlac Tri-Nations Series]], the first matches for the team. The predominant colour of the home shirt is blue, with the names and numbers of players in white, while the shorts are orange, representing the colours of the Vegnese flag, though there is also the possibility that the shorts could also be white. The away kit is, on the other hand, totally white, with numbers and names of players in blue.

The Vegno national football team is the football team which represents the micronation of Vegno. It is a member of the AEFA, and is run by the FCV.

History

The team was founded in early 2022 after Vegno's Micrasian claim was successful. The team's first participation was in the friendly tri-series tournament in Krasnovlac, against fellow FMF newcomers Krasnovlac and Pacary, which Vegno successfully won after two victories.

The 2023 FMF World Cup qualification rounds, Vegno's first competitive foray, saw the team top their six-team group with 23 points and qualify for the finals, where they advanced from Group D in second place with eight points. They then defeated Tiana 2–0 in the play-off round before being eliminated by Phinbella 2–1 in the quarter-finals.

After bidding successfully to host the 2024 Copa Apollonia, the team bypassed the qualifying rounds and also received an automatic berth in the year's FMF Confederations Cup, where they placed second in the hosts' group with six points to advance to the semi-finals. There they lost narrowly to Senya before also losing the placement play-off to Mercury 2–1 to place fourth overall. At the Copa Apollonia, Vegno finished top of their five-team group with eight points, by virtue of goal difference over Mecklenburgh, leading to a place in the semi-finals. After a lengthy penalty shoot-out loss to Senya, following a 1–1 draw, the team then defeated Meckelnburgh 1–0 to take third place on home soil.

In 2025's World Cup qualifiers, the team finished top of their five-team group unbeaten after gaining twenty points to advance to the finals. There, they topped their five-team group after winning all four matches to advance to the quarter-finals, but lost on penalties to Sanama following a 5–5 draw to be eliminated at that stage.

Chronological competitive participation

Team image

Crest

The team's crest was created in 2022 by the FCV following the foundation of the team to become the first official symbol of the Vegnese national side. The crest's design includes the flag of Vegno with the cormorant, the name of the nation and the abbreviation of the Vegnese football association, the Federazione Calcistica del Vegno.

Used: 2022–



Kits

The first home and away kits of the Vegno national team were presented in April 2022, just before the beginning of the 2022 Krasnovlac Tri-Nations Series, the first matches for the team. The predominant colour of the home shirt is blue, with the names and numbers of players in white, while the shorts are orange, representing the colours of the Vegnese flag, though there is also the possibility that the shorts could also be white. The away kit is, on the other hand, totally white, with numbers and names of players in blue.
