Yemen

The Yemen national football team (Arabic: منتخب اليمن الوطني لكرة القدم‎), is the national team of Yemen and is controlled by the Yemen Football Association. When the nation was split into North Yemen and South Yemen before 1990, two national teams existed. After unification, the Yemen national football team is considered the successor of the North Yemen national football team.

See the article South Yemen national football team for details on the South Yemen team. Despite being the 5th most populated country in the Middle East, and Yemen's successes at the Youth teams such as the U23, U20 and U17 Yemen, so far, Yemen has never achieved the same success as those with smaller populations like United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Syria, Jordan and Oman.
