grande Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 Huh, isn't Kiribati a "real country?" I guess if they're not FIFA-affiliated, though, they can play in this tournament? Are there any Canadians in the Cascadia lineup? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toje Posted January 29, 2018 Author Share Posted January 29, 2018 Kiribati haven't played since 2011 (I think) when they played in the Pacific Games. I suppose a tournament with CONIFA helps to get them to play some matches again. Sapmi are not playing this time around, which is a big surprise as they are usually quite strong. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sápmi_football_team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
