SAN MARINO 
Last win - 28th April 2004 - Liechtenstein - W 1-0

Sunday 5th June - MALTA L 0-2 
Thursday 9th June - ICELAND (Friendly) L 0-1 
Sunday 12th June - Malta L 0-1 

San Marino are still without a competitive win and in their last set of fixtures failed to score but proved stubborn opponents to Estonia, Malta and Iceland. They have now gone five games without a goal with their last scored in a friendly game against Lithuania in March 2022 by Filippo Fabbri. 

Fans have said their performances have improved under Manager Fabrizio Costantini who moved up from coaching the u21 side in November 2021. 

In their last four games they had 4 shots on target and conceded 17 on target compared to 3 and 44 in former boss Franco Varella's last four games in charge. The statistics look better when you see they let in 6 goals in their last 4 games and 22 in Varella's last four games. 

Their next game is a UEFA Nations League at home to Estonia in September.
