The Tibernum national football team (Vespasian: Selezione di calcio della Tiberna) represents the Petrine See in footballing competitions. An entirely amateur team, the Tibernese team is notable for being comprised of members of the Solarian Curia, the official administrative body of the Solarian Catholic Church.
Due to their amateur status, the Tibernese national team is not a member of FIEF, Euclea's professional football governing body, and as such does not play matches against any of Euclea's professional teams. The team plays rarely against amateur teams or teams comprised of volunteers or employees at various institutions within the Petrine See, as well as some charitable organisations.
The Tibernese national team contest a friendly rivalry with CF Cristal-Bleu, a team representing the Blue Crystal Movement comprised of volunteers from the organisation, known as the Derby della Angeli ("Angels' Derby")
