It’s a night they’ve been waiting for more than two decades. The players of the national team of San Marino won the second match in the history of their country, twenty years after a first friendly victory against Liechtenstein on April 28, 2004.

Thanks to a goal from Nicko Sensoli, San Marino beat Liechtenstein with the same score 1-0.

San Marino, 210th in the FIFA Ranking, wins the second meeting in its history in thirty-eight years of existence. And 206 matches played. This is the very first success in an official competition. San Marino thus ends a series of… 140 matches without a victory. Or 12,600 minutes.
