Gibraltar have never won a FIFA World Cup or UEFA European Championship.

Europe (UEFA) · No major trophy yet

Still waiting for a first World Cup or continental title

Gibraltar's story so far

Gibraltar 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. Gibraltar joined UEFA on 24 May 2013 and earned their first senior men's competitive victory by beating Armenia 1-0 in the Nations League in October 2018. Their 2026 World Cup qualifying campaign ended fifth in Group L with no points. A Nations League match win is distinct from winning that competition or reaching World Cup or European Championship finals.
