Football in Luxembourg is the most popular spectator sport, one of the most popular participation sports, and the closest that Luxembourg has to a national sport. It is governed by the Luxembourg Football Federation (FLF), which is a member of FIFA and UEFA. The FLF organises the main national team and other representative sides, in additional to the main domestic competitions: the National Division and the Luxembourg Cup.
Since there are no large-scale Luxembourg stadiums, the national team often plays home international matches in the nearby French city of Metz.
