TheGuatemala national football team (Spanish:Selección de fútbol de Guatemala) representsGuatemala in men's internationalfootball and is controlled by theFederación Nacional de Fútbol de Guatemala (English:National Football Federation of Guatemala). It has been a member ofFIFA since 1946 and a founding member ofCONCACAF since 1961. Regionally, it is also a member ofUNCAF. From 1938 to 1961, it was affiliated withCCCF, the former governing body of football in Central America and Caribbean and a predecessor confederation of CONCACAF, and also a member ofPFC, which was a unified confederation of the Americas, from 1946 to 1961.
The team has made threeOlympic tournament appearances, competing at the1968,1976, and1988 Olympic Games. Guatemala have yet to qualify for the finals tournament of theWorld Cup, although they have reached the final round of qualification on five occasions.
Guatemala is one of three national teams from the Central American zone to have won the CONCACAF's premier continental competition, winning theCONCACAF Championship in1967. The team's best performance under theCONCACAF Gold Cup format was reaching the semi-finals twice (1996 and2025).Regionally, it also won theCopa Centroamericana in2001 (organized by UNCAF).
Guatemala created its first football team, made up of 22 players, on 23 August 1902. The team was split into two sides, blue and white. With time, clubs were made and eventually the Guatemala national team, nicknamed "la Azul y Blanco" (the blue and white), was created in 1921. Guatemala had its first game on 16 September 1921, in theIndependence Centenary Games held inGuatemala City, againstHonduras. Guatemala beat Honduras 9–0.[4] In the final, Guatemala were defeated 6–0 byCosta Rica.[5]
Guatemala had success in several editions of theCCCF Championship, the precursor of theGold Cup, by being the runners-up in1943,1946, and1948. In1958, Guatemala began participating in the qualifying rounds of the World Cup. They finished last, without a point, in a group with Costa Rica and theNetherlands Antilles.[6]
Guatemala's performance in theWorld Cup qualifying rounds began to improve in the 1960s. In1962 they drew against both Costa Rica (4–4) and Honduras (1–1). However they again finished last in their qualifying group.[7]
Guatemala did not participate in the qualifying round in1966, asFIFA refused their participation for administrative reasons.
Guatemala joinedCONCACAF in1961. In1967, they again showed the progress they had made when by participating by winning the Gold Cup for the only time in their history.[8] In that tournament, hosted byHonduras, Guatemala began with a 2–1 win againstHaiti, followed by a 1–0 win over the defending champions,Mexico, a 0–0 draw against Honduras, a 2–0 win overTrinidad and Tobago, and a 2–0 win overNicaragua. The forward Manuel "Escopeta" Recinos was Guatemala's top scorer with four goals, including the goal against Mexico.
Guatemala were also the runners-up in the CONCACAF Championship in1965 and1969.

In 1967, Guatemala showed further progress by qualifying for the1968 Olympic football tournament inMexico City. In the first round, they won 1–0 againstCzechoslovakia, and 4–1 againstThailand, and lost toBulgaria 2–1. They went on the next round, where they lost 1–0 to the eventual champions,Hungary.
Before the 2006 World Cup qualifiers,Carlos Ruiz was the main focus in providing goals for the national team along withJuan Carlos Plata. Many other stars such asFredy Garcia,Gonzalo Romero,Guillermo Ramirez, andMartin Machón were expected to play huge roles as well. In the2006 World Cup qualifying, Guatemala advanced to the third round by beatingSuriname 4–2. There they finished second in Group B, behindCosta Rica, with 10 points each. In the fourth round they started with a 0–0 draw againstPanama and a 5–1 win against Trinidad and Tobago. Then their fortunes would change starting with a 2–0 loss away against theUnited States and at home against Mexico followed by a 3–2 loss against Costa Rica. Many fans have begun to doubt the national team’s chances of clinching their first World Cup berth, that was until a last second strike from Gonzalo Romero that gave them a 2–1 win against Panama. They lost against Trinidad and Tobago 3–2, drew against the United States 0–0 and then lost toMexico 5–2. Guatemala had 8 points with one game left, and a win alongside aTrinidad and Tobago defeat against Mexico would send them intothe play-offs. They won 3–1 against Costa Rica but Trinidad and Tobago beat Mexico 2–1. They finished in fifth place, two points away from the play-off spot. Juan Carlos Plata and Martin Machón announced their retirement from International Football in 2006.

After a third-place finish at the2007 UNCAF Nations Cup, and reaching the knockout stage in theGold Cup of the same year, along with a couple of satisfying friendly matches, including a 3–2 win against Mexico,Hernán Darío Gómez was to be the next coach to lead Guatemala into the Hexagonal in the World Cup qualifying stage. However, after losing 5–0 in early 2008 against the under-23 Argentine team, the Colombian soon departed. During2010 World Cup qualifying, expectations of qualifying for the finals were set among the national team as Ramon Maradiaga returned as coach. They began well by advancing to the third round by defeatingSaint Lucia 9–1 on aggregate.
In the third round, Guatemala began with a 1–0 home loss to the United States, with controversies surrounding the Panamanian referee Roberto Moreno, including not awarding a penalty to Guatemala in the first half after a handball fromSteve Cherundolo, as well asGustavo Cabrera being sent off after colliding withEddie Lewis in the second half. In their second match,Los Chapines salvaged a draw in the closing minutes of the game against Trinidad and Tobago inPort of Spain afterCarlos Gallardo deflected a free kick by Marco Pappa. On 10 September, Cuba shocked the Guatemalan supporters by taking the lead after Roberto Linares scored in the 25th minute, but by half-time, Carlos Ruiz had equalised, and in the second half, Ruiz scored again.Mario Rodríguez andJosé Manuel Contreras also scored and Guatemala won 4–1.
On 11 October, many fans gathered around the Estadio Mateo Flores for the game against Trinidad and Tobago. Despite being reduced to 10 men, the Soca Warriors were able to hold Guatemala to a 0–0 stalemate. Guatemala then lost in Cuba, falling behind 1–0 after Jaime Colome scored a penalty. Marco Pappa volleyed in an equalizer in the 80th minute, but Urgelles won the match for Cuba in the 90th minute. Meanwhile, the Trinidadians defeated the United States 2–1 at home, putting them in second place. Maradiaga was fired and Benjamin Monterroso was appointed, focusing on the Copa UNCAF the following January. A 2–0 away loss against the United States confirmed the elimination of the national team from the World Cup.
At the UNCAF nations cup, Monterroso wanted to introduce more youthful players into the starting line up such as Minor Lopez, Ricardo Jerez and Wilson Lalin, but Guatemala lost both group stage matches against Costa Rica and also lost 2–0 toNicaragua in the play-off match for the final berth to attend the next Gold Cup; Minor Lopez was the lone goal scorer for Los Bicolores. As a result, the national team were inactive for the next two years and Monterroso stepped down after two months in charge.

In May 2010, the Uruguayan-born ParaguayanEver Hugo Almeida was appointed as the Guatemala's next coach. At the2011 Copa Centroamericana, formerly known as the "UNCAF Nations Cup", Guatemala finished in fifth place, losing 2–0 to Costa Rica and 3–1 Honduras before defeating Nicaragua 2–1 to qualify for the2011 Gold Cup.
At the Gold Cup, Guatemala drew 0–0 against Honduras despite being reduced to nine men. They lost against a physically superiorJamaica 2–0, but managed to redeem themselves by beatingGrenada 4–0, with goals fromJosé Javier del Águila,Marco Pappa, Carlos Ruiz, and Carlos Gallardo. In the quarter-finals, they lost to 2–1 the reigning championsMexico, after Ruiz had given them the lead in the first half.
For the2014 World Cup qualifiers, Guatemala began in the second round with six wins in six games, advancing to a third round group alongside the United States, Jamaica andAntigua and Barbuda. Before the third round, three key players – Guillermo Ramirez, Gustavo Cabrera and Yony Flores – were sent home during a practice session after their team-mates Ruiz and Luis Rodriguez heard of their involvement in money laundering and bribery in fixing multiple fixtures; they were subsequently banned for life.[11]
The team began with an away loss to Jamaica, withDwight Pezzarossi only managing to pull back one goal in stoppage time. In the next match, Guatemala drew at home against the United States, with Marco Pappa's free kick salvaging a draw for the Guatemalans. At home against Antigua and Barbuda, Guatemala again fell behind, but after the Antiguan goalkeeper Molvin James was sent off for wasting time, Ruiz scored a brace and a goal from Pezzarossi sealed a 3–1 victory. Four days later, a goal from Ruiz sufficed for an away win against the same opponents in North Sound.
Guatemala beat Jamaica at home 2–1, leaving them needing a draw against the United States to progress to the final stage of the qualifiers. After they took the lead in the first five minutes thanks to Ruiz, the United States scored three unanswered goals, and Guatemala finished behind Jamaica on goal difference.
In January 2013, still led by Almeida, Guatemala participated in the2013 Copa Centroamericana. With a team of mainly younger players, they could only manage three draws in their group play (1–1 against Nicaragua, 0–0 againstBelize and 1–1 against Costa Rica), losing out to Belize for direct qualification for the2013 Gold Cup. They faced Panama in the fifth place match, but lost 3–1, and Almeida stepped down in favour of the technical director,Victor Hugo Monzón.

On 28 October 2016, the Guatemalan football federation was suspended indefinitely by FIFA, after the international football governing body had appointed an oversight committee to look into allegations of corruption.[13] FIFA stated that the Guatemalan federation (FEDEFUT) had rejected the committee's mandate to run FEDEFUT's business, organize elections, and modernize its statutes, and would remain barred from international competition until FEDEFUT ratified an extension of the mandate.[14]The football team missed their chance on qualifying on the 2017 and 2019 CONCACAF Gold Cup tournaments (2017 Copa Centroamericana and2019–20 CONCACAF Nations League qualifying) as they missed deadlines to have their suspension lifted.
The suspension was lifted on 31 May 2018 after FEDEFUT's normalization committee became fully operational.[15]
After their FIFA suspension, Guatemala resumed normal operations and went through World Cup Qualification. They did not advance beyond qualification for the2018 FIFA World Cup. Guatemala drew in the first leg againstBermuda, and won 1-0 in the second. After a loss of 0-1 toAntigua and Barbuda in the first leg, they won 2-0 in the second leg. Overall, they placed 3rd in their table and failed to advance further.
