List of San Marino international footballers

Last updated

The San Marino national football team (Italian : Nazionale di calcio di San Marino) represents the nation of San Marino in the international association football. It is fielded by the San Marino Football Federation (Italian : Federazione Sammarinese Giuoco Calcio), the governing body of football in San Marino, and competes as a member of the Union of European Football Associations (UEFA), which encompasses the countries of Europe. The San Marino Football Federation became affiliated with the Fédération Internationale de Football Association (English: International Federation of Association Football) (FIFA) in 1988 and the country's first international match took place two years later on 14 November 1990 against Switzerland in a UEFA Euro 1992 qualifier. [1] [2] San Marino's first result that was not a defeat was a 0–0 draw at home to Turkey in a 1994 FIFA World Cup qualifier on 10 March 1993, [2] and the team's first and only win came over 10 years later after Liechtenstein were beaten 1–0 in a friendly on 28 April 2004. [3]

Contents

Since 1990, 97 players have appeared for the San Marino national team, [4] all of whom are listed here. Defender Damiano Vannucci holds the record for most caps, having appeared 64 times for San Marino from 1996 to 2011. [4] The side's all-time top scorer is Andy Selva, who with eight goals from 57 caps is the only player to have scored more than one goal for San Marino. [4] The team's most-capped goalkeeper, Federico Gasperoni, represented San Marino 41 times between 1996 and 2005.

[1] [2]

Players
