A player earns a cap for playing for their country in an international game.
Years ago, players used to be given an actual cap (hat) for playing. This no longer happens, but the terminology is still used.

A cap is a game played and a player gets it by entering into a game.

Baseball cap ? JOKE -- A cap is the name given to each time a player has been selected to play for his country and has played for his country, as opposed to playing for a club -- you know "at club level" and at "national level".

it literally was a cap in the old days given to a player to commemorate them playing for their country. One for every match played.They may still be given in England
