The Oman national football team, known as Al-Ahmar (The Red Warriors), represents the Sultanate of Oman in international football. Governed by the Oman Football Association, the team plays its home matches at the Sultan Qaboos Sports Complex in Muscat, adorned in their iconic red home kits. Oman has established itself as one of the most consistent and respected teams in West Asia over the past two decades. Under the long-term guidance of coach Pim Verbeek and later Branko Ivanković, Oman has regularly challenged for qualification to the AFC Asian Cup, making several appearances and advancing to the knockout stages. They are known for a disciplined, organized, and physically robust style of play. Key players like Ali Al-Habsi, the legendary goalkeeper, have been symbols of the team's resilience. While World Cup qualification has remained elusive, the Red Warriors are perennial contenders in the Gulf Cup, which they won in 2009 and 2017. The team enjoys strong support from the Omani public, embodying national pride on the football pitch.
