Despite being typically one of the weaker teams in South America, Bolivia has already participated in three FIFA World Cup, at 1930, 1950 and 1994; but only scored one goal throughout three competitions. Erwin Sánchez was the sole scorer for Bolivia, as he scored in Bolivia's 1–3 defeat to Spain at 1994. In their first two participations, Bolivia was invited; and the team only qualified for 1994 edition. At the Copa América however, Bolivia has a better and prestigious record, winning one at 1963 and finished runners-up at 1997, both held at home. Bolivia also participated in one FIFA Confederations Cup at 1999 in Mexico, their fourth FIFA tournament they have played, and scored two goals.
