  • Kuwait have been playing international football since 1961. Their first game was a 2-2 draw v Libya. Kuwait were at their strongest in the late 70s and early 80s as they were semi-finalists for three straight Asian Cups from 1976 to 1984 winning the 1980 tournament. They also qualified for the 1982 World Cup where they met England in the group stage. This is the only times the two teams have met.
