Talamia national under-21 football team

The Talamia national under-21 football team represents the Socialist Republic of Talamia in international football competitions. It is controlled by TLS (Talamia Laktis Summaka), under the aegis of TSS (Talamia Sports Summaka), the governing body for sports in Talamia, which is a member of DSAFF (Democratic Socialist Assembly Football Federation).

The team was born in the early months of 2021, after the announcement of the future organization of the first ever DSAFF Blossom League.

Just like the senior team, Talamia under-21 national football team's home ground is the Ebdemar Au'tokra Stadium, in Clinepalas.

The team is known as the Hoopoes, from the national animal. Black and red are the common colours, as it is in the national flag.

History
On 25th June 2021, DSAFF president Oiktirmon-Niaco Paidarion officially announced the future organization of the first DSAFF tournament dedicated to national under-21 selections: the DSAFF Blossom League. Despite the great passion for football, Talamia until that moment did not have a youth team. The TSS, in agreement with the TLS, thus decided to create it.

On 29th June 2021 Polemiste Ek Psello, former assistant of Sanisla Pedalisismi between 2020 and 2021 in the senior team, was appointed coach.

The team will represent Talamia in the major under-21 competitions of the Multiverse, such as the Di Bradini Cup and the DSAFF Blossom League.

Team image
The under-21 team takes the same image and the same colors as the senior team. The first kit, whose technical sponsor is Tahuatxi, is red and black, while the away kit is mainly white. The goalkeeper wears a green jersey, while the third one - orange and black - reflects the colors of the national animal: the hoopoe.

Home stadium
Unlike the senior team, the Talamia U-21 national team plays its home games in different stadiums around Talamia. The debut match in Blossom League, and therefore in official competitions, was played in the Retroikia Stadium in Epopsoli, on the island of Pralladoke. In that occasion, Talamia drew 1-1 against Itini, with Purgos Dromos becoming the first Talamian player to score a goal for the U21 selection. The second match, won 4-0 against New Ordiel Kalibleland, was played at Potam Park, in KarpìStomà.
