Çakaristan 2025 FMF World Cup bid friendly matches
Throughout late 2024 and into early 2025, Çakaristan played a series of friendly football matches against multiple opponents as part of the campaign to promote the 2025 FMF World Cup bid by Çakaristan.
It is no secret that the Shahanshah is the driving force behind the 2025 bid, therefore a lot of money and effort was put into promoting football. And thus also to put the country on the map as a football nation. To add strength to the bid, a series of friendly matches were organised. Hoping to improve the statistics of the national team, given that the team has not previously made it through the qualifications of a FMF World Cup and Copa Apollonia.

Fans of both teams enjoyed the game, which highlighted the sporting atmosphere of a friendly encounter.
The match was attended by the Shahanshah himself with his two sons and cheered exuberantly when the first goal was scored.
Sanpantul
Since the Sanpo-Çakar War, efforts have been made diligently to restore friendly ties between Çakaristan and its unincorporated territory, Sanpantul. On the economic front, there are close ties, but outside, there is still mistrust. To address this, a friendly football match was organised. The hope is that this will be the start of an annual rematch to be organised in turn.
On a sunny day, a friendly football match between the teams of Çakaristan and Sanpantul took place at the Atiya bint Alsalam Stadium in Kipei, the capital of Sanpantul. The match ended with a score of 1-3 in favour of Sanpantul.
From the start of the match, Sanpantul took the initiative and the team showed a strong attack. Soon they managed to score the first goal, which further strengthened the home team's momentum. Çakaristan tried to fight back and got some chances, but Sanpantul's defence stood firm.
After a strong first half, in which Sanpantul managed to score a second goal, both teams went into half-time with a score of 0-2. In the second half, Çakaristan did not give up and finally managed to score a goal, which brought back the tension in the match.
However, Sanpantul proved their strength by scoring the third goal soon after, extending their lead again. The final minutes of the match were intense, but Çakaristan could not change the score again. The match ended 1-3, giving Sanpantul the victory. Both teams showed sporting skills and strengthened their mutual bond during this friendly match.
Floria
No friendly football match had been held between the countries since diplomatic ties began. There have been tensions between the nations, but in the 1730s there has been a growing friendship.
In a friendly football match that took place at the Kantisha Stadium in Metoek, Floria won with convincing figures of 0-4 against Çakaristan. The match, which offered a taste of the skills of both teams, showed the strong form of Floria, the reigning winner of the 2024 Copa Apollonia.
Floria started the match strongly and quickly took the lead with a goal in the first half. Their attacking play and tactical organisation were clearly superior, resulting in three more goals during the second half. Çakaristan struggled to keep up with Floria's pace and could not capitalise on any chances. The win reinforced Floria's status as one of the top teams in the region and gave them confidence for future matches.
The Hexarchy
This is the first friendly football match between the national teams of the respective nations. Despite the rising unrest in The Hexarchy, there is a sense of national unity ahead of the match.
The friendly football match between Çakaristan and The Hexarchy took place at Plavi Park, Bhavybai, and ended with a score of 3-1 in Çakaristan's favour. Both teams showed strong commitment, but Çakaristan was clearly the superior side throughout the match.
The game had a celebratory character, partly due to the city tie between Bhavybai and Kurapura, The Hexarchy. Çakaristan opened the scoring early in the first half, and although The Hexarchy created a number of chances, they failed to find the net. In the second half, Çakaristan extended their lead with a second goal, after which The Hexarchy finally managed to score, giving them a glimmer of hope. In the end, Çakaristan decided the match with a third goal, allowing them to step off the pitch with a clear victory. The match was not only a sporting showdown, but also an opportunity for both teams to strengthen their bonds of friendship.
