San Marino's Historical Win: San Marino, a nation that always suffered defeats and rare of the rarest draws, a nation that did not taste a win in more than 20 years, has finally seen a turn in their fortunes as they record their first-ever win in a competitive competition.

The historical feat came against Liechtenstein in the UEFA Nations League D Group 1 fixture on Friday at the Stadio Olimpico di Serravalle in Serravalle, and the breakthrough moment came from attacking midfielder Nicko Sensoli, as the 19-year-old scored in the 53rd minute via a right-footed attempt into the centre of the goal.

FINAL DEL PARTIDO.

San Marino's All Time Win-Draw-Loss Record

The lowest ranked nation in the world, San Marino (210th) managed to beat Liechtenstein, who are ranked 199th in the world. The official all-time record of San Marino now stands at 2-10-199, which states 2 wins; 10 draws; and 199 defeats.

Co-incidentally, San Marino's first-ever win in their history also came against the same opposition back in 2004.
