The Great Sammarinese Challenge!
That's right I'm back and attempting a challenge bigger and better then anything I've ever attempted before and hopefully I'll be successful in it. Originally this was going to be a Tunisian save but due to cash flow issues in African football but instead I will instead be attempting a save with everybodies favourite Italian speaking landlocked country; San Marino. Without further ado here is some information about the national team and club side:
-
The San Marino national football team (Italian: Nazionale di calcio di San Marino) is the national football team of San Marino, controlled by the San Marino Football Federation (FSGC). The team has enjoyed very little success due to the republic's tiny population, the smallest of any UEFA country.
The first official game played by a San Marino team was a 4–0 defeat in a European Championships qualifier to Switzerland in 1990. Previously, a San Marino side had lost 1–0 to a CanadianOlympic team in 1986, but this was not an official match. Since making their competitive bow, San Marino have competed in qualifying for every European Championships and World Cup, but have never won a match in either competition.
They have only ever won one game, beating Liechtenstein 1–0 in a friendly match on 28 April 2004.
San Marino is currently tied with Bhutan and Turks and Caicos Islands, for last (207th) in the FIFA World Rankings. However, San Marino ranks 203rd out of 232 teams in the Elo Rankings.

As you'll see I've taken the guise of San Marino's most capped international player: Damiano Vannucci.
