The Cuba national football team represents Cuba in men's international football, and is controlled by the Asociación de Fútbol de Cuba, which is a member of FIFA since 1932 and was a founding member of CONCACAF since 1961. It was also affiliated with NAFC and later with CCCF, which was the two predecessor confederations of CONCACAF. It was also a member of PFC, the attempt at a unified confederation of the Americas.
Nicknamed Los Leones del Caribe.
They were the first Caribbean team to get to the World Cup Quarter finals – they did so in 1938. There, in the round of 16, they defeated Romania in a replay, 2–1, after drawing against them 3–3. They were then eliminated in the quarter-finals by Sweden, 8–0. Cuba has not returned to the World Cup since.
Cuba finished second in the North American Nations Cup in 1947, which they hosted the tournament, second also in Caribbean Cup in 1996, 1999, and 2005, but won in 2012.
