The Tiana national football team, known domestically as the Tiana national soccer team, is the football team which represents the micronation of Tiana. It is a member of the EMUFA.

The team has existed twice in the FMF's history; firstly between early and late 2011, and secondly since early 2012.

History

The team was founded in early 2011 after Tiana's Micrasian claim was successful. The team was entered into the qualifiers for the 2011 FMF World Cup, where they finished bottom of their group after losing all six games.

Tiana was removed from Micras in late 2011 but reclaimed its land at the beginning of 2012, with the Tianan national team gaining FMF membership for the second time in doing so. The team competed in the year's World Cup qualifying, finishing fourth in their five-team group with eight points, below Juclandia on goal difference.

In December 2012, Draco Sanchez, the former manager of Senyan club Politzëa, was hired as the first full-time manager of the Tianan national team.
