The represents
Chile in all major international
Football competitions. The team is controlled by the
Federación De Fútbol De Chile and was established in
1895 . They have appeared in seven
World Cup tournaments.
Chile was one the teams invited and that accepted to compete in the first World Cup in
1930 . They started off well beating
Mexico and
France without conceding a
Goal . A 3-1 loss to Argentina in their final game left them in second place in their group, eliminating them from the tournament. In the 1950 World Cup, Chile was eliminated in the first round but defeated the
United States 5-2.
Their best World Cup result was a third place finish in
1962 , when Chile was the host nation. Chile lost 4-2 to eventual champions
Brazil in a semifinals match, but beat
Yugoslavia 1-0 in the third place match.
Chile was one of the founding members of
CONMEBOL which included Argentina, Brazil, Uruguay and participated in the first
Copa America tournament in 1916. The first official use of a
Bicycle Kick was performed in a CONMEBOL
Copa America match between Chile and Argentina gaining footballing notoriety and international appeal. The journalists who had witnessed the event had labeled the move la
Chilena . The attributed move has made a worldwide appearance and is labeled differently in other parts of the globe. While in Copa America play, Chile has reached four finals but has lost in each appearance.
In
Olympic Tournament play, Chile's best result was the Bronze medal at the
2000 Sydney Olympic Games , with striker
Ivan Zamorano the competition's top scorer.
