Europe - San Marino Make Their Point... Finally

After six years and 36 matches, European football’s basement nation finally managed to claim a competitive point during the latest round of Nations League fixtures.

Last time they did so was in a home game against Estonia in 2014.

And last Tuesday’s goalless draw away to fellow minnows Liechtenstein - both countries have populations of fewer than 40,000 people - also saw them record their first clean sheet away from home in their 30-year history.

Their international playing record now reads Won 1, Drawn 5, Lost 162. They’ve scored 24 times, almost one goal per year, and conceded exactly 700 times.
