The Scovern men's national football team (Mescon: Skoverns herre-fodboldlandshold, Vestelian: Skoverns herrelandslag i fotball, Frellandic: Skóþjóð karlalandsliðið í knattspyrnu) represents the Kingdom of Scovern in international association football. The team is overseen by the Scovernois Football Federation (SFF) and is a member of the Euclean International Football Federation (FIEF).

Formed in 1900, Scovern qualified for the first Coupe du Monde in 1939. It reached the quarter-finals in the 1971 Coupe du Monde but were eliminated by eventual winners Gaullica. The team of the early 1980s is usually considered as the height of Scovernois football, reaching the semi-finals of the 1983 Coupe du Monde before being knocked out by Senria. Scovern went through a slump in the 1990s, however, failing to qualify for both the 1995 and 1999 Coupes and falling to a record-low 34th place on the IFF rankings in 1997. Scovern has also seen mild success at the Invictus Games, having won two bronze medals in football.

History

The first Scovernois team in their inaugural fixture against Werania in 1900.

Scovern had fielded a number of unofficial national teams in the 19th-century, but the first professional game played as Scovern was against Werania in Westbrücken in 1900, which resulted in a 2–1 victory for the away side.
