Cypriot football clubs in European competitions information
Cypriot men’s football teams have participated in UEFA competitions since the 1963–64 season. [1][2] Before that, the Cyprus Football Association joined UEFA in 1962.[3] Cypriot teams have participated in five European competitions: the European Cup/UEFA Champions League, UEFA Cup/UEFA Europa League, UEFA Cup Winners' Cup, UEFA Intertoto Cup and UEFA Europa Conference League. 16 different Cypriot clubs have participated in at least in one European competition.
In the first few decades of participation, Cypriot teams lost by large margins.[2] Later, results began to improve. In 2008, a Cypriot team, Anorthosis Famagusta FC, qualified for the group stage of a European competition for the first time. [4] Since then, at least one Cypriot team has participated in the group stage of a European tournament every season. The best performance was the appearance of APOEL FC in the quarter-finals of the 2011–12 UEFA Champions League.[5] APOEL would also make an appearance in the round of 16 of the 2016–17 UEFA Europa League, the second best performance of a Cypriot team in UEFA competitions.
Cyprus' UEFA coefficient at the end of the 2012–13 season was 14th, the highest the country ever achieved. [6][7]
