The Burundi national football team, nicknamed The Swallows (French: Les Hirondelles)(Kirundi: Intamba m'Urugamba), represents Burundi in international football and is controlled by the Football Federation of Burundi. The team has never qualified for the World Cup. Burundi previously did come very close to qualifying for the 1994 Africa Cup of Nations, losing only on penalties to Guinea in a playoff. However, in 2019, it qualified for the first time, and took part in the Africa Cup of Nations finals in Group B, but lost all its matches and left from the group stage without scoring a single goal.
Intwari Stadium is a multi-purpose stadium in Bujumbura, Burundi. It is currently used mostly for football matches. The stadium holds 10,000. It was formerly named after former Burundian prime minister and independence hero, Louis Rwagasore before being renamed on July 1, 2019.
