Historical teams

This new section allows you to import selected national team snapshots from specific historical dates — for example, Denmark (June 1992), Iraq (July 2007), or North Korea (June 1966).

Past team ratings

Some teams now include AI-generated or public domain historical squad photos.

When importing a team’s rating individually, if historical elements such as a flag, squad photo, or team name are available, they will automatically replace the original team data.
