Soviet Union women's national football team

It was founded in 1990, so it was a short-lived national team due to the dissolution of the Soviet Union the following year.Socially conservative views in the Soviet Union negatively affected the development of women's football in the country.Following a letter published in 1972 in the magazine journal Zdorovye complaining about a women's football tournament being held in Dnipropetrovsk, Nina Graevskaya, head of the USSR Federation of Sports Medicine, replied that holding such competitions was inexpedient, arguing that playing football posed a danger to the female body because of the size of its heart, bones and pelvis and its spine and joint's degree of mobility.The Soviet national team played its only official game on 6 October 1991, a 2–1 win over Hungary.They would play their final match a month before their next qualification game, ending their short existence with a balance of 9 wins, 9 draws and 21 losses.
