Setelah keluhan dari FAI, FIFA mengintervensi dan membatasi kelayakan pemain berdasarkan batas politik. Pada tahun 1953 FIFA memutuskan tim tidak dapat disebut sebagai Irlandia, memutuskan bahwa tim FAI secara resmi ditunjuk sebagai Republik Irlandia, sedangkan tim IFA menjadi Irlandia Utara.
== Past performances ==
=== British Home Championship ===
Until the 1950s, the major competition for Northern Ireland/Ireland was the [[British Home Championship]]. The team won the competition eight times, taking the title outright on three occasions. They were the last winners of the now defunct competition held in [[1983–84 British Home Championship|1984]], and hence still are the British champions, and the trophy remains the property of the Irish FA.
=== FIFA World Cup ===

Northern Ireland's best World Cup performance was in their first appearance in the finals, the [[1958 FIFA World Cup|1958 World Cup]], where they reached the quarter-finals after beating [[Czechoslovakia national football team|Czechoslovakia]] 2–1 in the play-off. They were knocked out by [[French national football team|France]], losing 4–0. In the 1958 competition, Northern Ireland became the least populous country to have qualified for the World Cup, a record that stood until [[Trinidad and Tobago national football team|Trinidad and Tobago]] qualified for the [[2006 FIFA World Cup|2006 World Cup]]. Northern Ireland remains, however, the least populous country to have qualified for more than one World Cup finals tournament, to win a World Cup finals match, and to have progressed from the first round of the World Cup finals.
Captain of the national side at the 1958 World Cup was [[Danny Blanchflower]], who also captained [[Tottenham Hotspur F.C.|Tottenham Hotspur]] in the English league and was twice [[FWA Player of the Year|footballer of the year]] in England. His younger brother [[Jackie Blanchflower|Jackie]] was also a key member of the national team, and won two league titles in England with [[Manchester United F.C.|Manchester United]], until his career was ended by injuries suffered in the [[Munich air disaster]] of February 1958.
Despite the presence of world class forward [[George Best]], another Manchester United player, for the 1960s and 1970s, Northern Ireland failed to qualify for any major tournaments.
Northern Ireland also qualified for the [[1982 FIFA World Cup|1982 World Cup]]. Their opening game was against [[Yugoslavia national football team|Yugoslavia]] at [[La Romareda]] stadium in [[Zaragoza]]. It was the international debut of 17-year-old [[Norman Whiteside]], who became the youngest player ever in the World Cup finals, a record that still stands. The game finished goalless. Five days later, they drew 1–1 with [[Honduras national football team|Honduras]], which was a disappointment, and many believed had doomed Northern Ireland's chances of advancing in the competition.<ref>{{cite book|last=Whiteside|first=Norman|title=Determined|publisher=[[Headline Publishing Group]]|year=2007|isbn=978-0-7553-1598-7|page=129}}</ref> They needed a win against hosts [[Spain national football team|Spain]] in the third and final group game at the [[Mestalla Stadium]] in [[Valencia]]. They faced a partisan atmosphere with a mostly Spanish crowd and a [[Spanish language|Spanish]]-speaking referee in [[Héctor Ortiz (referee)|Héctor Ortiz]] who was unwilling to punish dirty play from the Spanish players.<ref>{{cite book|last=Whiteside|first=Norman|title=Determined|publisher=[[Headline Publishing Group]]|year=2007|isbn=978-0-7553-1598-7|page=135}}</ref> A mistake from Spain goalkeeper [[Luis Arconada]], however, gifted [[Gerry Armstrong (footballer)|Gerry Armstrong]] the only goal of the game, and despite having [[Mal Donaghy]] sent off on 60 minutes, Northern Ireland went on to record an historic 1–0 win and top the first stage group.
A 2–2 draw with [[Austria national football team|Austria]] at the [[Vicente Calderón Stadium]] meant that a win against France would take them into the semi-finals, however a French team inspired by [[Michel Platini]] won 4–1 and eliminated Northern Ireland from the competition.
In the [[1986 FIFA World Cup|1986 World Cup]], they reached the first round. [[Billy Bingham]], a member of the 1958 squad, was manager for both of these tournaments. They have not qualified for any other World Cups since.
=== Recent history ===
[[Image:NI murals NI football.jpg|thumb|200px|The Our Wee Country mural in east Belfast commemorating Northern Ireland beating England at home in 2005.]]
[[Lawrie Sanchez]] was appointed in January 2004 after a run of ten games without a goal under the previous manager [[Sammy McIlroy]], which was a European record for any international team until [[San Marino national football team|San Marino]] went over 20 games without scoring between October 2008 and August 2012. That run ended after his first game in charge, a 1–4 loss to [[Norway national football team|Norway]] in a friendly in February 2004. The run of 16 games without a win ended after his second game, a 1–0 victory in a friendly over [[Estonia national football team|Estonia]], with a largely experimental side, in March 2004.
On 7 September 2005, Northern Ireland beat England 1–0 in a 2006 World Cup [[2006 FIFA World Cup qualification (UEFA)|qualifier]] at [[Windsor Park]]. [[David Healy (footballer)|David Healy]] scored the winner in the 73rd minute. Almost a year later, on 6 September 2006, Northern Ireland defeated Spain 3–2 in a [[UEFA Euro 2008 qualifying Group F|qualifier]] for [[UEFA Euro 2008]], with Healy scoring a hat-trick. In June 2007, [[Nigel Worthington]] was named manager in the place of Lawrie Sanchez, who took over at [[Fulham F.C.|Fulham]]. Initially, Worthington took over until the end of the Euro 2008 qualifiers, but was later given a contract until the end of the [[UEFA Euro 2012 qualifying|Euro 2012 qualifiers]]. [[Michael O'Neill (footballer)|Michael O'Neill]] became manager in February 2012 after Worthington had resigned in October 2011 after a poor Euro 2012 qualification campaign.
The Northern Ireland team [[UEFA Euro 2016 qualifying Group F|qualified]] for its first ever [[UEFA European Championship]], [[UEFA Euro 2016|Euro 2016]] in France, after beating [[Greece national football team|Greece]] 3–1 at Windsor Park on 8 October 2015.<ref>{{cite web|quote=At the tournament, the Northern Ireland fans made the famous chant ‘Will Grigg’s on fire’ famous|url=https://www.bbc.com/sport/0/football/33543829|title=Northern Ireland 3 Greece 1|date=8 October 2015|work=BBC Sport|access-date=28 October 2015}}</ref> At the tournament, Northern Ireland were beaten 1-0 by [[Poland national football team|Poland]] on 20 June 2016 followed by a 2–0 win against [[Ukraine national football team|Ukraine]] on 16 June 2016 and finally a 1–0 loss against [[Germany national football team|Germany]] in the group stage. That was enough to qualify for a Round of 16 spot where they lost 1–0 to [[Wales national football team|Wales]] due to an unfortunate own goal by Gareth McAuley.<ref name="Jackson">{{cite news | url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/36486427 | title=Ukraine 0, Northern Ireland 2 | work=BBC Sport | date=16 June 2016 | access-date=16 June 2016 | author=Jackson, Lyle}}</ref>
