The Lebanon national under-23 football team, also known as the Lebanon Olympic football team, represents Lebanon in international under-23 association football competitions. Controlled by the Lebanese Football Association (LFA), the squad is governed by the Asian Football Confederation (AFC) continentally, and FIFA worldwide. The team also serves as the national under-22 football team of Lebanon.
The selection is limited to players under 23, except for the Olympics which allows the men's team up to three overage players. The side has never qualified for the Olympic Games nor the AFC U-23 Asian Cup. They have only participated once in the Asian Games, in 2002, in which they were eliminated in the group stage.[1]
