History and achievements
The Montenegro national football team represents the country in international football, it is controlled by Football Association of Montenegro. Montenegro is the youngest international football team entering the UEFA on January 27, 2007 and the FIFA on May 31, 2007.
The team played in the qualifying games for the World Cup for the first time in 2010 but finished fifth in its group. Montenegro is on the 50th position in the FIFA World Rankings.
When Montenegro separated from Serbia and Montenegro state, it was necessary to set up its own national football team. The Montenegro Football Association was founded in 2006, but at that time qualifying games for Euro 2008 were in full swing and the team missed the championship.
The first official friendly game played on March 24, 2007 against Hungary turned out to be a success. Mirko Vucinic, an attacker of the Italian club Juventus, scored the first goal and Montenegro won 2-1.
Zoran Filipovic was the first coach of recently founded team and stayed with the team for 23 games: the team scored victory eight times, eight times played a draw and lost seven clashes. The team played their first competitive game against Bulgaria on September 6, 2008 and marked a draw.
