🎉Congratulations to Virtus, in special to San Marino icons Manuel Battistini and Alessandro Golinucci!

🇸🇲👑 Virtus, the westernmost club in the micro-state of San Marino, have won the league title for the first time in their 60-year history today.

The championship was sealed by a 95th-minute winning goal against five-time champions Tre Penne by the incredibly named 'Buonocunto'!

Have you heard our latest pod yet? From Andorran squirrels to Mr Blobby, it is another all-encompassing episode.

And there’s a little bit of Sweeper uncut too for any listeners that tune in right until the very end 😉

🇸🇲 SAN MARINO (women's U-16s) WIN A GAME!

In only their second ever match, San Marino's women's Under-16s triumph over Estonia on penalties having conceded late to draw 1-1.

They are taking part in a Development Tournament in San Marino with Georgia, Estonia and Luxembourg.

🇬🇪📈 The artist formerly known as Saburtalo has been faring well since changing its club name to the holiday photo album-resembling 'Iberia 1999'.

Since the switch before the start of the 2024 season, Iberia 1999 have lost only once & currently sit atop the standings in Georgia.

As you can tell from Paul Watson’s soothing voice, we were featured in the brilliant latest episode of The Sweeper yesterday!
