The footballing world is waiting in anticipation

San Marino could end a 20-year winless streak tonight as they face Liechtenstein in a Nations League clash.

Two decades have passed since their only ever victory - a 1-0 friendly against tonight's opponents.

Captain Matteo Vitaioli first played for his nation 17 years ago. He's yet to taste a win for the team.

However, Vitaiolo and his team-mates have a golden opportunity tonight.

It would be their first ever competitive win, with only 11 spots currently separating the two sides in the Fifa world rankings.

Liechtenstein themselves are on a 40-game winless streak, so something has to give tonight.

Fans are eagerly-anticipating the clash on X, with 'San Marino' growing in searches:
