In the past, the selection has also played against club teams, as in 1963 against Stade Reims, or Inter Milan in 2012.

The match against Congo was organized by the CFA (Corsica Football Association). In order to be called up for the team, a player had to fulfil two conditions: having at least one parent or grandparent from Corsica and being a professional player or being part of a professional club.

Venue of the team

The venue of the selection is not fixed : Corsica has played in both of the major cities of the island, Bastia and Ajaccio. It has been said that from now on, the matches will be played alternatively in Bastia (Stade Armand Cesari) and in Ajaccio (either Stade Ange Casanova or Stade François Coty).

Сборная Корсики по футболу (корс. Squadra Corsa di Balò) — неофициальная футбольная команда, представляющая Корсику.[2] Ввиду того, что Корсика является частью Французской Республики, сборная острова не входит в FIFA и UEFA, не имея права на участия в чемпионатах Мира и Европы и ограничиваясь проведением товарищеских встреч.
