Landsliðið has never troubled a World Cup or European Championship draw, but its shelf holds two Island Games titles, taken in 1989 and 1991, and two Greenland Cups either side of that, won in 1983 and 1984. The result the islands still measure themselves against, though, needed none of that: a 1–0 win over Austria in 1990, Torkil Nielsen scoring the only goal and Jens Martin Knudsen keeping it out at the other end, arrived within the team's first two years of senior recognition.

The Faroe Islands Football Association had existed since 1979, but FIFA membership only followed in July 1988, UEFA admission in April 1990, and the national side played its first official fixture only after the first of those dates.
