The French Guiana national football team (some called French Guyana) is the national team of French Overseas Departement French Guiana and is controlled by the Ligue de Football de La Guyane Française, which is a local branch of Federation Francaise de Football. As part of French Republic, French Guiana is not a member of FIFA, and is therefore not eligible to enter the World Cup, but they do compete in CONCACAF competitions. Since it is a part of France, players who are good enough are eligible for selection to the French national football team. This happened in the cases of left-winger Florent Malouda and the former goalkeeper Bernard Lama.
