The Finland national football team represents Finland in men's international football competitions and is controlled by the Football Association of Finland. The team has been a member of FIFA since 1904 and a UEFA member since 1957.

Finland had never qualified for a major tournament until securing a spot at UEFA Euro 2020, which was postponed to 2021 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. After many decades of average results and campaigns, the nation made progression in the 2000s, achieving notable results against established European teams and reaching a peak of 33rd in the FIFA World Rankings in 2007. But, after that, they saw a decline of performances and results, drawing them to their all-time low of 110th in the FIFA Rankings in 2017. However, after six years of their all-time low in the FIFA Rankings, as of September 2023, they sit at 54th place in the overall ranking.<\/P>","90CF36599B563A1AA6EE0398DF07A98F":"Urheilukatu 1 PO Box 191 FI-00251 HELSINKI","3FC9B61F2E659497C9CEBAE42D62ADEB":"Finland","56D1193A280251FE":"Finland","32EED5AE2B03C17AE9CE11F4F5F2936F":"Finland","4DC924206DB9E0EB3B8818DC2C371A93":"Helsinki Olympic Stadium","87C021F1E71FC6CD6E05BF0B3DD05793":"","F4582884020ECEA691D8D46CC172E947":"","2EC2CE09DA225C510B8476426035EFA9":"
