Israel’s national team played their first international match in 1948 and was one of the founding members of the Asian Football Confederation, where they competed from 1954 until being expelled in 1974. Following their expulsion from the AFC, Israel initially competed in UEFA World Cup qualification and later in the Oceania Football Confederation qualifiers before becoming full UEFA members in 1994. Since joining UEFA, Israel have predominantly been one of the minor nations within the confederation, having not qualified for the Euros or the World Cup during this period, however have remained competitive and have been close to qualifying for the Euros on several occasions. Israel’s greatest period of success was in the 1960’s and 70’s, an era in which they qualified for the FIFA World Cup in 1970, as well as the Olympics in 1968 & 1976 in addition to winning the AFC Asian Cup in 1964.
