The Valencia national football team is the football team which represents the Alexandrian territory of Valencia, and previously represented the Victorian constituent nation and independent kingdom of the same name. It is a member of the EMUFA.

History

The team was founded in late 2009 after Valencia's Micrasian claim was successful. Prior to the the following year's qualifiers for the FMF World Cup, Valencia was annexed by Victoria and became a constituent nation of the empire, but retained its separate FMF membership. In the qualifiers, the Valencian team topped their group by a point and sealed qualification to the 2010 FMF World Cup. They advanced from their finals group with two wins out of three before being comfortably beaten by eventual champions Craitland in the quarter-finals.

The 2011 qualifiers were less of a success for the Valencians, with the team finishing second in their group to Nova England, missing-out on qualification by a point. However, their placing qualified them for the 2011 EMU Championships, where they could only manage fifth place in a six-team group without winning any matches. Later in the year, Valencia was annexed by Alexandria following Victoria's death.

The Valencians' fortunes lessened again in 2012's qualifiers, where the team could only finish third in their five-team group with eleven points, missing-out on qualifying for any tournaments for the first time.
