Today San Marino managed to come back in an international match for the first time by beating Liechtenstein 3-1 as a visitor and thus ensured its promotion to League C of the UEFA Nations League, an unprecedented achievement for this modest European team.
Those led by Roberto Cevoliconsidered the worst soccer team in the world, wrote one of the most glorious pages in its history this Monday at the Rheinpark Stadion.
The match started uphill for the “Sereníssima”, who saw how Aron Sele ahead of Liechtenstein in the first half.
However, in a second half to remember, San Marino turned the score around with goals from Lorenzo Lazzari, Nicola Nanni and Alessandro Golinucci.
The victory meant much more than three points, since with this result, the “celeste” team broke several historical records: they won a game as a visitor, scored three goals in the same game, and managed to triumph in two games in the same year, in all cases for the first time.
In addition, they finished as leaders of their group, ensuring promotion to the third category of the Nations League and consolidating the best year in their football history.
This success is even more relevant when considering the context: in September, San Marino had broken a 20-year winless streak by also beating Liechtenstein.
That time, a goal from Nicko Sensoli allowed them to end a series of 141 games without a win, with just six draws and 135 losses.
