New Caledonia national football team results (1951–1999)

This article details the match results of the New Caledonia national football team from its inception in 1951 through 1999. Due to limited historical record-keeping, comprehensive data for earlier periods may be incomplete. This record includes official FIFA-recognized matches, as well as other international friendlies and tournament games featuring the New Caledonia national team, often referred to as "Les Cagous."

Early matches primarily consisted of games against other Pacific Island nations, particularly those participating in the South Pacific Games (later known as the Pacific Games). Key opponents included Tahiti, Fiji, Papua New Guinea, and Vanuatu. Tournaments such as the Oceania Nations Cup (formerly OFC Nations Cup) also provided significant competition.

Results are typically presented chronologically, including the date of the match, the venue, the opponent, the score (New Caledonia's score listed first), and the competition or occasion. Note that historical records may contain discrepancies regarding exact dates, venues, and team compositions.

This period covers a time before widespread internet documentation of football matches in the region. Therefore, reliance is placed on available archives, historical reports, and records from the Oceania Football Confederation (OFC). Data regarding friendly matches and smaller tournaments can be especially difficult to verify completely.

Further research and contributions are welcomed to improve the completeness and accuracy of this historical record.
