TheWorld XI, also known as theFIFA World Stars, is anassociation football scratch team consisting of players from various countries. The World XI play one-off games against clubs, national teams, collectives of continental teams.^[3]

The official first match of the FIFA World XI was held againstEngland on the 100th anniversary of theFootball Association – 23 October 1963. The World lost 2–1 in front of a crowd of 100,000.^[1] Prior to this, matches had been played in 1947 against theUnited Kingdom in Scotland (to celebrate thefour British national teams returning toFIFA, with the proceeds going to the world governing body)^[4] and against England in 1953 (for the Football Association's 90th anniversary – in fact all the players were fromcontinental Europe).

FIFA has organised several World XI squads to compete in various commemorative exhibitions and charity testimonials,^[5] but in its own documentation, the only official World Stars Games listed are those against national, pan-continental or representative teams; its matches against club teams includingNew York Cosmos,Hamburger SV,Benfica,Anderlecht,Flamengo,Barcelona,Manchester United andReal Madrid are not included.^[6]
On 18 July 2007, the World XI faced an Africa XI with both teams unusually composed of retired players.^[7]

The Women's World XI first played on 14 February 1999 atSpartan Stadium inSan Jose, California, United States, for the draw of the1999 FIFA Women's World Cup, defeating theUnited States 2–1.^[6]
