Conte: San Marino looking tired!
Siena boss Adriano Conte has stated he believes that San Marino are growing tired, and this may cost them promotion.
He said San Marino would probably benefit with a few more seasons in Serie B, stating that instant promotion to Serie A could be a horrid experience for the San Marino team.
He also said that San Marino could be tired after never playing a season this long
haha thanks. It's been hard, thanks for taking the time to read the whole lot

Siena blew their chance to catch San Marino today. They believed San Marino were spent and went out to play fancy football, how ever, San Marino managed to match them and show some great defensive tactics. San Marino win by a narrow margin, 1-0, courtesy of a Tiboni penalty. San Marino find themselves 6 points clear at the top of Serie B.

Bernacci and Tiboni were on a two man power trip, intent on pilling on the misery on Sorrento, who were battling relegation. Between them, they scored 6 crucial goals.
Lazio in the final!
Lazio are through to the final of the Italian cup, edging Pescara in a tight encounter. Pescara had two goals ruled out and have every right to feel angry, but at the end, it was Lazio who won 1-0 on the night, and 2-1 on aggregate. They'll face the winners of San Marinio/Palermo.

Palermo 3(2) - 4(1) San Marino
From Renzo Barbera, La Favorita, Palermo, Att:35066
Munari (5), Hernandez (13), Rubinho (47))
Koman (48), Schipplock (54), Troiano (65, 77))
Palermo looked to kill the game off early, and it looked like they did when Munai scored after just 5 minutes. And the Hernandez sent the home fans into rapture with a nice header at the near post on 13 minutes.
After the second half, Goal Keeper Rubinho took a free kick from inside his own half and some how it managed to find its way into the net, Palermo were cruising, 3-0 up in the night and 5-1 on aggregate.
But a minute later, Koman gave San Marino little hope, scoring a tap in on 48 minutes. Palermo were happy to defend and San Marino took this as their call to attack. Substitute Schipplock scored San Marino's second on 54 minutes, 3-2 on the night, 5-3 on aggregate.
Palermo began to attack again, and San Marino hit them on the break with Troiano scoring on 65 minutes. It was all equal on the night, and San Marino were on fire with Palermo not having an answer. 13 minutes from the end Troiano scored again, to give San Marino the lead and equal on aggregate, but San Marino had the away goals.
Palermo were relentless in the last ten minutes but Henrique put on the performance of his life and kept Palermo out. San Marino had shocked Italy, they were in the final!

San Marino suffered a major cup hang over today, with Atalanta pushing them all the way, having an end of season resurgence which has seen Atlanta leap frog Siena into second place. San Marino were lucky to finish just 1 goal behind
San Marino promoted
Despite losing 3-2 to promotion rivals Atalanta last night, San Marino still clinched promotion to Serie A. Their fans were ecstatic along with the board, who hailed Mr Drezzy as a wonder maker.
But Mr Drezzy was keen to point out that San Marino were extremely lucky through out the season, and needed to concentrate next season, and not rely on luck

San Marino completed their third consecutive promotion season on a high, winning 2-0, easily. San Marino will take to the dizzy heights of Serie A next season, and bowed out in style today
