History
Brunant played it's first official game in 1909 versus England, which they lost 3-0. Their first win was over Belgium in 1912, which they beat 2-1. The Dragons were not very successful in this era, winning only five matches and not qualifying to any major tournaments. With Florian Evers on the team (from 1925-1940) Brunant improved significantly but was not a big team. The team participated in the inaugural Micronations World Cup and in 1954 made it to the finals but lost out to Saarland 4-1. The greatest era for Brunant was in the late 1970s and early 1980s, with players such as Andres Mones, Willem Bergher, Hamid El-Zein and Stefan Linhart. They led Brunant to second place in 1978 and to its first championship in 1980. They won the tournament again in 1984 after a 5-1 thrashing of Cape Verde. Brunant's next victory was in 2000 and since then they have not made it past the quarter-finals.
