The American Samoa national soccer team is the national team of American Samoa and is controlled by American Samoa Football Association. It is one of the weakest teams in the world, and holds the distinction of suffering the largest loss in international football history, having been defeated by Australia 31-0 on April 11, 2001.

American Samoa has never won a FIFA-sanctioned match. The team has only recorded one victory in its history over Wallis and Futuna in 1983, when neither team was a member of FIFA (Wallis and Futuna Islands still is not).

It is among the weakest national teams in the world. The current FIFA ranking is joint last of all countries registered for full internationals.
