  • Even in the context of a small nation, San Marino's competitive record is terrible: 32 years of international football, 136 matches, 0 wins. But watching Europe's worst football team comes with a strange and unique thrill - what if tonight's the night? What if they actually win? Imagine how good the party will be...

    To everyone that says they have to change something:
    San Marino has:
    30,000 habitants
    14,000 of them are male
    4,000 are in the age (20,32)
    300 are interesstet in playing football (next to working the rest of the day
    So they probably take everyone that is able to walk or is not to fat :)

      That's exactly it. When germany played them in world cup qualifiers, german TV did a piece on their national team - and it was involutarily funny, because you are used to these born-and-bred footballers with their multimillion cars and houses, talking about their careers and the team's chances in the tournament, but then you see this piece and it's freaking "Giovanni, the baker" standing in his little shop telling the reporter how hard it is because he has to be up early for his job, but stay up late for pratice as most of the team have a normal 9 to 5 job, and how they decided that Toni, the cop, has to be the goalie because he's the only one dumb enough to jump at shots from international legends.
      (I'm paraphrasing here, but it was that kind of report.)

    I do feel it's important to point out that despite being such a useless team, San Marino managed to score against England in the FIRST TEN SECONDS of their World Cup qualifying match on 17th November 1993.
    It was the quickest goal in World Cup qualifying history up to that time.

However, in the Caribbean and Oceania, there are so many incredibly bad teams, that those will eventually at least draw against someone.

    Dumpert sent me here. Also, Wikipedia tells me that San Marino HAS indeed won ONE international match (28 April 2004, San Marino - Lichtenstein 1-0). Sure it was a friendly, but on that note, they ALSO drew four matches of which three were for 'official things' like qualifying matches for the World Cup and European Cup, including one against Turkey, which is "a country that HAS qualified for such tournaments a few times". So ... yes, they are potentially the worst national team, but ... give them SOME credit at least.

But we dug in and by the end of the season the team that stuffed us we drew with, and finished mid table. And for the next 7 seasons we were always in the top 3. Happy times plus back then you played on the full sized pitches. Under 10’s games were funny to watch, a keeper in goals either end and twenty kids all together chasing the ball !! Great stuff .

    Knowing the USMNT's derpy history, they'll probably hand San Marino their first ever win.

    Hang in there San Marino 🇸🇲 My country the Philippines 🇵🇭 have been the whipping boys in Southeast Asia. Up until the Miracle of Hanoi 2010. When we Drew Singapore & beat Vietnam 🇻🇳 to our best ever Semi-Finals finish in the AFF Cup. By 2019 we’ve qualified for the first time in the Asian Cup.

    Some may laugh, but I say they are at least striving hard in football for 35 years. You will never find a passionate Football region that still has a fan following even after 32-35 years. It means a lot to them.
