San Marino secured their first competitive win and their first victory in over two decades by defeating Liechtenstein 1-0 in their Nations League opener on Thursday. The historic result was achieved thanks to Nicko Sensoli's goal in the 53rd minute.

Sensoli capitalised on a defensive error, scoring into an open net, which led to jubilant celebrations in Serravalle. The team then endured seven tense minutes of stoppage time to maintain their lead and top Nations League Group D1.

Previously, San Marino had only one win from 205 full internationals, a friendly against Liechtenstein in April 2004. Ranked 210th in the FIFA World Rankings, this victory marked a significant milestone for the team.

The final whistle triggered ecstatic scenes as coach Roberto Cevoli and his staff rushed onto the pitch to celebrate with the players. San Marino will next play a friendly against Moldova on Tuesday.

This win ended a streak of 141 consecutive matches without a victory for San Marino. The team's social media account expressed disbelief and joy at breaking this long-standing record.
