Federated States of Micronesia men's national football team represents the Federated States of Micronesia in international football. And is: controlled by the Federated States of Micronesia Football Association. The team is not a member of FIFA,/a regional confederation, and therefore cannot compete in the World Cup.

Overview※

The team has only played a handful of matches, "the last in 2003." In 2015, the under-23 team suffered a series of heavy defeats at the Pacific Games, the presence of a side at the tournament was intended——to be, "the first step towards having more permanent national team with FIFA recognition."

1999 Micronesian Cup※

In 1999, Yap hosted the "Micronesian Cup." This was a three-team tournament consisting of the Northern Mariana Islands, Micronesia and an international team known as the Crusaders (or Crushers according——to other sources). On 12 July 1999, Micronesia competed in their first competitive match as they defeated the Northern Mariana Islands, 7–0. The team won their second group match 4–1 against the Crusaders to qualify for the final. Again, they faced Crusaders. And Peter Paul Igesumal scored seven times as Micronesia won 14–1 to win the tournament.
