England national football team results (1872–1899)

The England national football team represents England in association football and is controlled by The Football Association. It is the joint-oldest national football team in the world, alongside Scotland, England's opponents in what is now recognised as the world's first international football match, which took place at Hamilton Crescent in Glasgow in November 1872.[1] Prior to this, a series of matches had been played between teams representing the two countries, but the Scottish team was drawn almost entirely from players based in and around London and these games are now not regarded as full international matches.[2]

  Win    Draw    Loss

Between 1872 and 1899, which was the end of the 19th century, England played in 61 matches, resulting in 37 wins, 9 draws and 15 defeats. During this time England played annual friendly against Scotland each year until 1883, and added a regular game against Wales in 1879. These two teams remained England's only opponents until the British Home Championship was instituted in 1884, consisting of a round-robin tournament between England, Scotland, Wales and Ireland.[3] Of the 15 tournaments staged prior to the 20th century, England won 7 outright and 2 jointly with Scotland.[3]
