San Marino and Finland will battle for three points in a deadrubber Euro 2024 qualifier on Monday (November 20th).
The hosts are coming into the game on the back of a 3-1 victory away to Kazakhstan on Friday. Islam Chesnokov scored a brace while Abat Aymbetov added a late third from the spot in injury time. Simone Franciosi scored what proved to be a consolation strike on the hour-mark.
Finland, meanwhile, comfortably dispatched Northern Ireland with a 4-0 home win. Joel Pohjanpolo, Daniel Hekans, Teemu Pukki and Robin Lod all found the back of the net for the Huuhkajat.
The win had no effect on their position in the table as they remained in fourth spot in Group H with 15 points to show for their efforts in nine games. San Marino are last on zero points and both sides have been eliminated from the running for qualification.
