Origins (1984–2003)
Many teams had represented Western Sahara or the Sahrawi Arab Democratic Republic on unofficial matches, being the first known against an Algerian league team as early as in 1984, before the creation of the Sahrawi Football Federation. In 1986, 1987 and 1994, friendly matches were played against Algerian, Spanish and Italian league teams. In 1988, a Sahrawi Republic team played with Le Mans UC 72 in France, loosing 3-2. On February 27, 2001, during the 25th anniversary of the proclamation of the SADR, a match was played in the Sahrawi refugee camps in Tindouf Algeria between a Sahrawi Republic team and a Basque Country national football team veterans team. The match was attended by more than 4,000 fans, and was suspended on the second half due to the temperature (38º C), when the result was 2-2.

After losing the first leg 1-0 in São Tomé last weekend, Likuena needed a 2-0 win in yesterday’s fixture in order to proceed to the next round of the competition.
During the meeting the selection of Lesotho reacted very well with several shots to save Sao Tome Gi interventions that had two clear goals to deny genius to lesotanos which also saw a shot hit the crossbar on the goal of Sao Tome and Principe.
