Information
has glosseng: The favourite sport in Liechtenstein is football both when it comes to active players and media exposure. In recent years the national football team from this tiny nation has made some remarkable results. In the qualification for the World Cup in Germany 2006 they made two victories and 2 draws (2–2 against Portugal and 0–0 Slovakia). In the qualification for the EURO 2008 they made 7 points in a tough group with Spain, Sweden, Northern Ireland, Denmark, Latvia and Iceland. Liechtenstein is the only European nation not to have their own league. Club sides play in the Swiss leagues, with FC Vaduz currently playing in the top Swiss division. The tiny principality does have its own cup competition, the winners of which are guaranteed entry into the UEFA Cup. Given their placement within the Swiss league system, it is perhaps unsurprising that FC Vaduz have become the dominant force within the Liechtenstein Football Cup, winning the last 11 competitions, dating back to the 96-97 when FC Balzers won.
