The Omerica national football team (French: Équipe de l’Omérique de football) is the representative team of the United Republics of Omerica in international association football and is currently organised by the United Republican Soccer Federation, the governing body for football in Omerica. The team primarily contest the World Cup and Independents Cup, which alternate annually.

History

The Omerica national team was one of fifty-six to début in the 56th Baptism of Fire in Schiavonia and San José Guayabal, with Omerica advancing to the knockout stage undefeated before bowing out to Lons after extra time in the last 32. The national team subsequently floundered for several cycles, finishing below expectations in tournament after tournament until Campionato Esportiva XIV in the Sarian, where Omerica unexpectedly won their group and made the quarterfinals after defeating Yttribia. Despite falling to eventual runners-up Nephara in a close match, the tournament marked a significant turn in fortunes for the national team; following the team’s Campionato exit, Omerica would finish in a bitter third-place in World Cup 73 qualification before achieving two consecutive knockout stage qualifications and an upset qualification for World Cup 74, narrowly beating out eventual world champions Nephara in their qualifying group.

At the finals, Omerica scalped Flardania and nearly advanced to the knockout phase, only being eliminated on the final day of the group stage by Barunia. After boycotting Campionato Esportiva XVI in Falatulu, the Omerican Football Federation found itself mired in a corruption and betting scandal. Combined with a riotous fanbase which had caused numerous bouts of destruction, the scandal dogged the team’s World Cup 75 qualifying campaign and ultimately brought the OFF to an untimely end, with the Sessions Court of the Metropolitan Arrondissement ordering the federation’s dissolution under federal anti-corruption legislation and its liquidation to cover the fines issued to OFF executives. In the aftermath of the scandal, the republican football associations, which had predated and existed parallel to the OFF, formed the United Republican Soccer Federation to take over the OFF’s functions and opted to indefinitely pull Omerica from international competition.

Omerica would return to international football after a seven-year hiatus with its entry into the third Independents Cup. With the team unable to escape their group in either of their first two IAC appearances, the national team would record its two worst World Cup qualification campaigns in its history—finishing seventh and ninth out of ten in World Cup 79 and 80 qualification respectively—leading to the retirement of Ryan Pritchard and sacking of Christine Salmond. Former Club de 28 Mars manager Anne-Sophie Groothuis took over for Cup of Harmony 72; despite failing to get Omerica out of the group stage at that tournament, Groothuis’s Omerica would record its first knockout stage appearance at the Independents Cup in the fifth edition and would have its best qualification campaign in twelve years during the World Cup 81 cycle, finish fourth in the group and securing a winning record for the first time since the Omerican Football Federation’s dissolution. Nonetheless, this luck would not carry over to the subsequent Cup of Harmony, where Omerica were draw into a “group of death” against Abanhfleft, Geisenfried and Darkmania, bowing out in the final matchday of the group stage.
