Europe (UEFA) · No major trophy yet
Cyprus are one of 160 national teams who have never won a FIFA World Cup or their confederation's continental championship — the same two-tier standard tracked for every team on this site. The story so far: the national team is still chasing a first major tournament, but Cypriot clubs like APOEL have reached the Champions League group stage — proof the footballing infrastructure is there.
To join the 51 nations already tracked here, Cyprus would need to win either the FIFA World Cup or the UEFA European Championship — the top continental honor in the Europe (UEFA) region. Both remain fully open: there's no ranking or seeding that rules a team out permanently, only qualification and results on the pitch.
No. Cyprus has never won a FIFA World Cup or the UEFA European Championship. The story so far: the national team is still chasing a first major tournament, but Cypriot clubs like APOEL have reached the Champions League group stage — proof the footballing infrastructure is there.
