Fans talk about a historic day after a goalless draw with Saint Kitts and Nevis; end point in cycle of 12 consecutive defeats
The status of the worst team in the world is bluntly assumed in San Marino, ranked last in the FIFA rankings, so this Sunday’s result was welcomed with enormous satisfaction, although, at the same time, with a certain bitter aftertaste.
The good news is that San Marino did not lose, managing to draw again after two years, but before the game there was a certain optimism in the air regarding the possibility of victory over the Caribbean team, with whom they had lost days before, by 2 -3. This was the 12th defeat in a row for San Marino, who managed to put an end to this negative cycle… and usual, with this Sunday’s goalless draw, celebrated as a victory.
And the performance, local fans report, even deserved a triumph, but it was only a draw and a record of 96 consecutive minutes without a goal conceded.
