History
20th century
Football in Furilisca officially started in 1950, with the formation of the Efstuliga, which later became the Snævi Fótboltaliga. Two years later, in 1952, Furilisca selected their best players for its first ever international friendly with Iceland, which resulted in a 2-0 loss. Throughout the 1950s, Furilisca played several matches against its Nordic neighbours, achieving their first win 3-1 away win against Finland on 20 April, 1957 in Helsinki. In 1960, Furilisca was invited to the 1960-63 Nordic Football Championship, and placed fifth. Furilisca won the 1986 Nordic Football Championship in Copenhagen, as well as the Greenland Cup in 1983. Furilisca was unable to claim another Nordic Football Championship title until the 1990s, where they won both the 1990-93 and the 1994-97 editions.
Iceland and Furilisca continued playing friendlies throughout the years, and developed a friendly rivalry between the two nations- due to their historical and linguistic similarities, and geographic proximity. Snævi Fótboltaliga clubs also began playing Besta Deildn clubs in preseason club friendlies.
