History
The first-ever organized futsal tournament in the Faroe Islands was held at the Bylgjan Sports Hall in Runavik in 2011.[2] The Faroe Islands Football Association assembled its-first ever national futsal team in November 2013 for two friendlies against the Greenland in Nuuk.[3] It was also the first time Greenland fielded an official futsal side.[4][5] On 29 November 2013, the Faroe Islands played Greenland's "B" team and won 8–6 to open the series. The team's goals were scored by Brian Jacobsen (3), Alex José Dos Santos (2), Alex Troleis (2), and Hanus Jacobsen.[6] The Faroese team went on to lose both remaining matches against Greenland's first team.[7][8]
