The Costa Rica national football team (Template:Langx) represents Costa Rica in men's international football. The national team is administered by the Federación Costarricense de Fútbol (Template:Langx), the governing body for football in Costa Rica. It has been a member of FIFA since 1927, it was a founding member of CONCACAF since 1961, and also a member of UNCAF since 1990.

Costa Rica is the most successful Central American national football team, winning 3 CONCACAF Championship titles (1963, 1969, 1989) and 7 CCCF Championship titles (1941, 1946, 1948, 1953, 1955, 1960, 1961). Costa Rica is the only national team in Central America to have played in six FIFA World Cup editions. Costa Rica's national football team has the all-time highest average Football Elo Ranking in Central America with 1597.1, and the all-time highest Football Elo Ranking in Central America, with 1806 in 2014.

Since the late 1980s, the team has continuously been visible as a solidly competitive side and has been widely considered to be the second or third best team in the CONCACAF, with a prominent performance in the 1990 FIFA World Cup in Italy, making it to the knockout stage in their debut after finishing second in their group during the first phase, below Brazil. They also qualified for the 2002 and 2006 World Cups. In 2014, Costa Rica achieved their best performance in history by finishing first in their group that consisted of three former World Cup champions: Uruguay, Italy, and England. During the round 16 they defeated Greece 5–3 via a penalty shoot-out after a 1–1 draw. Moreover, during their match against the Greek team, Keylor Navas saved more than 15 shots. They reached the quarter-finals for the first time but were defeated by the Netherlands, also in a penalty shoot-out (3–4) after a scoreless draw on 5 July.<ref>{{#invoke:cite|news|url=https://www.nytimes.com/2014/07/05/sports/worldcup/world-cup-2014-costa-rica-could-learn-from-uruguays-example.html?_r=0%7Ctitle=The Hopes of Central America Rest on a Perpetual Underdog : World Cup 2014: Costa Rica Could Learn From Uruguay's Example|newspaper=The New York Times|date=4 July 2014|access-date=19 December 2014|last1=Campomar|first1=Andreas|archive-date=20 December 2014|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20141220000826/http://www.nytimes.com/2014/07/05/sports/worldcup/world-cup-2014-costa-rica-could-learn-from-uruguays-example.html?_r=0%7Curl-status=live}}</ref><ref>{{#invoke:cite|web|url=http://www.wsc.co.uk/wsc-daily/1183-world-cup-2014/11720-costa-rica-goes-crazy-for-their-team-of-migrants|title=When Saturday Comes – Costa Rica goes crazy for the "team of migrants"|work=The New York Times|access-date=19 December 2014|archive-date=9 July 2014|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140709205045/http://www.wsc.co.uk/wsc-daily/1183-world-cup-2014/11720-costa-rica-goes-crazy-for-their-team-of-migrants%7Curl-status=dead}}</ref> Both their 2018 and 2022 World Cup campaigns ended in a fourth place group stage exit, with their only points coming from a 2–2 draw against Switzerland in 2018 and a 1–0 win over Japan in 2022.

HistoryEdit

Early historyEdit

The national team made its debut in the Independence Centenary Games held in Guatemala City in September 1921, winning their first game 7–0 against El Salvador. In the final, Costa Rica defeated 6–0 Guatemala to claim the trophy.<ref>{{#invoke:cite|web|last=Romero|first=Marcos|title=Costa Rica International Soccer Matches Since 1920|url=https://www.rsssf.org/tablesc/cos-intres.html%7Cdate=28 August 2009|website=RSSSF|access-date=2 November 2010|archive-date=3 December 2022|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20221203211137/https://www.rsssf.org/tablesc/cos-intres.html%7Curl-status=live}}</ref>

Costa Rica's team in the late 1940s acquired the nickname "The Gold Shorties".<ref>{{#invoke:cite|web|title="Los Chaparritos de Oro", la increíble generación de la Selección de Costa Rica en los 50 |url=https://futbolcentroamerica.com/costarica/Los-Chaparritos-de-Oro-la-increible-generacion-de-la-Seleccion-de-Costa-Rica-en-los-50-20220422-0016.html |access-date=25 April 2022 |website=Fútbol Centroamérica |date=22 April 2022 |language=es-ES |archive-date=23 April 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220423010139/https://futbolcentroamerica.com/costarica/Los-Chaparritos-de-Oro-la-increible-generacion-de-la-Seleccion-de-Costa-Rica-en-los-50-20220422-0016.html |url-status=live }}</ref> Throughout the '50s and '60s, they were the second strongest team in the CONCACAF zone behind Mexico, finishing runners-up in World Cup qualifying in the 1958, 1962 and 1966 qualifiers. Stars of the side during this period included Ruben Jimenez, Errol Daniels, Leonel Hernandez and Edgar Marin. However, Costa Rica was not able to utilize this advantage, hence failed to reach any World Cup at that decade.

At the end of the 1960s their fortunes declined as Guatemala, Honduras, El Salvador, Haiti, Trinidad & Tobago and Canada rose in prominence.

1980sEdit

Costa Rica failed to qualify for any of the World Cups in the 1970s and 1980s, and did not reach the final round of the CONCACAF qualifying until the 1986 qualifiers.

They participated in two consecutive Summer Olympic Games, in Moscow 1980 and in Los Angeles 1984. In 1980, Costa Rica competed against Yugoslavia, Finland and Iraq in Group D, losing 3–2, 3–0 and 3–0 respectively. In Los Angeles, the Ticos lost 3–0 against the United States, and 4–1 against Egypt, but beat a strong Italy team, which included Walter Zenga, Pietro Vierchowod, Franco Baresi and Aldo Serena, 1–0 with a goal by the midfielder Enrique Rivers.

1990 World CupEdit

Template:Football squad on pitch Costa Rica won the 1989 CONCACAF Championship to qualify for the finals of a World Cup for the first time. In the first round of the qualifiers, they beat Panama 3–1 on aggregate after a 2–0 away victory in the second leg, with goals by Juan Cayasso and Hernán Medford. They were drawn against Mexico in the second round, but advanced automatically when their opponents were disqualified for age fraud.

Costa Rica started the final qualifying group stage with a home victory and an away defeat against both Guatemala and the United States. They drew 1–1 with Trinidad and Tobago and then beat the same opponents 1–0 at home with a goal by Cayasso. They achieved an important away win, 4–2 against El Salvador at the Estadio Cuscatlán, with goals from Carlos Hidalgo, Cayasso and a brace from Leonidas Flores, before beating El Salvador 1–0 in San José with a goal from Pastor Fernández. They finished first in the group table, ahead of the United States on goal difference.

{{#invoke:Labelled list hatnote|labelledList|Main article|Main articles|Main page|Main pages}} 1989 CONCACAF Championship Placed in Group C at the World Cup finals, Costa Rica began by beating Scotland 1–0 thanks to another goal by Cayasso. Although they lost to Brazil by the same score, they came from behind to beat Sweden 2–1 in their final group match to reach the knockout stages. There, they lost 4–1 to Czechoslovakia, for whom Tomáš Skuhravý scored a hat-trick. {{#invoke:Labelled list hatnote|labelledList|Main article|Main articles|Main page|Main pages}} 1990 FIFA World Cup Group C

2002 World CupEdit

The Ticos played first in qualification for the 2002 World Cup held in South Korea and Japan. During the qualifiers, Costa Rica were coached by Brazilian Gílson Nunes, and then by the naturalised Brazilian, Alexandre Guimarães. The first qualifying group stage began with an unexpected 2–1 defeat to Barbados. After this humiliation, Costa Rica beat the United States 2–1 at the Ricardo Saprissa Stadium, with goals from Rolando Fonseca and Hernán Medford. They then beat Guatemala 2–1 in the Estadio Alejandro Morera Soto, with two goals from Paulo Wanchope and Barbados 3–0 at the Ricardo Saprissa, with goals from Jafet Soto, Fonseca and Medford. A draw against the United States and a 2–1 defeat to Guatemala forced Costa Rica into a play-off against Guatemala in Miami. Costa Rica won 5–2 with two goals from Fonseca and one each from Wanchope, Reynaldo Parks and Jafeth Soto.

Costa Rica displayed fine attacking form during the final qualifying round, beginning with a 2–2 draw against Honduras at the Ricardo Saprissa, with goals from Fonseca and Rodrigo Cordero, and a 3–0 defeat of Trinidad and Tobago at the Morera Soto. Their only loss in this round came when the United States beat them 1–0. Costa Rica bounced back with a 2–1 win against Mexico in Mexico City, a match known as the Aztecazo,<ref>{{#invoke:cite|web|title=¡Aztecazo!|url=http://wvw.nacion.com/ln_ee/2001/junio/17/home.html%7Cwebsite=Nación.com|access-date=26 March 2017|archive-date=29 June 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190629040333/http://wvw.nacion.com/ln_ee/2001/junio/17/home.html%7Curl-status=live}}</ref> with goals from Fonseca and Medford. Further wins over Jamaica, Honduras and Trinidad and Tobago took Costa Rica to the brink of qualification, which they sealed with an emotional 2–0 win against the United States in the Saprissa, with a brace from Fonseca. {{#invoke:Labelled list hatnote|labelledList|Main article|Main articles|Main page|Main pages}} 2002 FIFA World Cup qualification – CONCACAF final round In the finals, Costa Rica were drawn into Group C with Brazil, China, and Turkey. Their campaign started in Gwangju, where the Ticos beat China 2–0. In their second game against Turkey in Incheon, Winston Parks scored an 86th-minute goal to earn a 1–1 draw. Against Brazil, Costa Rica fought back from 3–0 down to 3–2 early in the second half, only to concede two further goals and lose 5–2. With Turkey beating China 3–0, Costa Rica finished behind Turkey on goal difference and were eliminated. {{#invoke:Labelled list hatnote|labelledList|Main article|Main articles|Main page|Main pages}} 2002 FIFA World Cup Group C

2006 World CupEdit

Costa Rica again managed to qualify for the World Cup finals in 2006, albeit with difficulties that saw their American coach Steve Sampson depart after they required away goals to beat Cuba in the preliminary phase. The Colombian Jorge Luis Pinto took over for the next round, which began with a disastrous 5–2 defeat at home against Honduras and a 2–1 loss in Guatemala. Costa Rica recovered with two wins over Canada and a resounding 5–0 triumph over Guatemala, when Wanchope scored a hat-trick and Carlos Hernández and Fonseca added further goals. Costa Rica advanced to the hexagonal round by winning the group.

In the final round they started with a 2–1 defeat against Mexico at the Saprissa, before beating Panama by the same score, with goals from Wayne Wilson and Roy Myrie. Pinto was dismissed after a goalless draw with Trinidad and Tobago, and Guimarães returned as coach. His first match ended in a 3–0 defeat to the United States, but wins followed against Guatemala, Panama and Trinidad and Tobago. Costa Rica decisively beat the United States in the Saprissa, 3–0, with a goal from Wanchope and two from Hernández, to guarantee their third World Cup qualification.

On 9 June 2006, Costa Rica played their debut match in Munich in the opening match of the World Cup against the hosts, Germany. Wanchope scored to equalise after an early goal from Philipp Lahm, and later added another, but Costa Rica lost 4–2. They failed to match this encouraging performance in their remaining two games, losing 3–0 against Ecuador and 2–1 against Poland in a dead rubber.

2010 World CupEdit

Costa Rica began the qualifying competition for the 2010 World Cup against Grenada, winning 5–2 on aggregate (2–2, 3–0). They won all six games played in the next phase, against El Salvador (1–0, 3–1), Haiti (3–1, 2–0) and Suriname (7–0, 4–1).

With two games left in the Hexagonal round, Costa Rica trailed Honduras by one point in trying to win the third automatic qualification place behind the United States and Mexico. When Honduras lost 3–2 at home to the United States, Costa Rica overtook them with a 4–0 win against Trinidad and Tobago. Needing to win the final match in Washington, D.C. against the United States to ensure qualification, the Ticos led 2–0 at half-time, but Jonathan Bornstein scored an injury-time equaliser to draw the match 2–2. Meanwhile, Honduras's 1–0 victory over El Salvador moved them into third place in the group table on goal difference.

Costa Rica finished fourth, pushing them into a play-off with the fifth-placed team from the CONMEBOL region, Uruguay. The Ticos lost the first leg in San José 1–0, after a goal by Diego Lugano, and finished with ten men after Randall Azofeifa was sent off. In the second leg, played at the Estadio Centenario in Montevideo, Sebastián Abreu put Uruguay ahead twenty minutes from time, and although Walter Centeno equalised, the 1–1 draw sent Uruguay to the World Cup finals, 2–1 on aggregate.

After failing to qualify, the team began a new era, with the young talent of players such as Azofeifa, Keylor Navas, Cristian Bolaños, Michael Barrantes and Joel Campbell. Rónald González was the interim coach before Ricardo La Volpe was appointed in September 2010. He lasted only ten months before being replaced by the Colombian, Jorge Luis Pinto, in his second spell in charge. During this period, Costa Rica played many friendlies against the top-ranked teams in the world, including the world champion Spain, most of them in the new national stadium, the Estadio Nacional, which was opened in 2011.

2014 World CupEdit

The Ticos' 2014 World Cup campaign began with a 2–2 draw against El Salvador in the third round of the qualifiers. They followed this with a 4–0 win over Guyana with a hat-trick by Álvaro Saborío. Two defeats to Mexico put the Ticos one defeat away from elimination, but they resurrected their campaign with a 1–0 win against El Salvador, with the only goal scored by José Miguel Cubero. They clinched a final round berth with a 7–0 win over Guyana, with goals scored by Randall Brenes, Saborío, Cristian Bolaños, Celso Borges and Cristian Gamboa.

The fourth round began with a 2–2 draw against Panama. In March, Costa Rica lost 1–0 against the United States in Denver, and launched an unsuccessful appeal against the match because of inclement weather.<ref>{{#invoke:cite|web|url=http://edition.cnn.com/2013/03/26/sport/football/united-states-costa-rica-mexico-football/index.html%7Ctitle=U.S. win stands as Costa Rica appeal blown away|date=26 March 2013|work=CNN|access-date=19 December 2014|archive-date=19 December 2014|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20141219232416/http://edition.cnn.com/2013/03/26/sport/football/united-states-costa-rica-mexico-football/index.html%7Curl-status=live}}</ref> Costa Rica again fell 1–0 to the United States in the Gold Cup that June.<ref>{{#invoke:cite|web|url=http://www.cbssports.com/general/eye-on-sports/22794673/us-downs-costa-rica-10-in-gold-cup-group-stage-advances-to-quarters%7Ctitle=U.S. downs Costa Rica 1–0 in Gold Cup group stage, advances to quarters|work=CBSSports.com|access-date=19 December 2014|archive-date=19 December 2014|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20141219225735/http://www.cbssports.com/general/eye-on-sports/22794673/us-downs-costa-rica-10-in-gold-cup-group-stage-advances-to-quarters%7Curl-status=live}}</ref> Costa Rica then won 2–0 against Jamaica, beat Honduras 1–0 against, drew 0–0 at the Azteca against Mexico and won at home 2–0 against Panama.

Costa Rica traditionally wears a red jersey with blue shorts and white socks. Their away kit historically was a Juventus-style black and white striped jersey with white shorts and white or black socks, due to these colors being the ones of CS La Libertad, one of the oldest clubs in Costa Rica. In the 1990 FIFA World Cup, the striped kit was used for two matches due to its resemblance to the home kit of FK Partizan of which Bora Milutinovic, then-coach of Costa Rica, was a fan.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> However, after 1997, the striped kit was replaced by a white kit. In 2015, Boston-based sportswear company New Balance became the provider of the national team, after taking over for Italian company Lotto. Since 2023, Adidas is the kit provider for the national team.
