Historic triumph! The selection of San Marino U21 did what the senior category cannot: win… and by a landslide. In an international friendly with the Gibraltar team, he achieved a 3-0 victory after 11 years with a hat-trick from Zannoni. His last victory had been against Wales 1-0 in September 2013.
The two teams will meet again on June 8. Gibraltar will seek revenge and San Marino will try to establish another milestone: winning consecutively. Meanwhile, the senior team suffered a tough defeat on Wednesday the 5th against Slovakia 4-0.
