Faroes - Aland 7-1. 1989 Island Games final. 2nd half. "...Bergur Magnussen!!!"

In the second half, Faroese domination became obvious. These 45 minutes are the greatest moments in the career of Bergur Magnussen, who curiously never went on to appear in a FIFA-registered international game. B36 striker from Streymnes scored no less than five goals past hapless Alanders and he made a double hattrick altogether in the game. Unfortunately for Bergur, these goals are not count by footballs governing body as Aland is not a member country of FIFA.

The Faroese football team appeared once again in Island Games, in 1991 in Aland and won the tournament again, despite bringing an experimental squad. After that the Faroese football association decided to quit the football competition in Island Games, as they were far too strong for all of their opponents. Instead Faroes concentrated in participating in World Cup and European championship qualifying tournaments.
