San Marino boss Giampaolo Mazza is relishing the chance to face England when he takes his team to Wembley on Friday night.
Mazza has become accustomed to tough games during a 14-year spell at the helm but says there have been odd moments to cherish along the way. He said: "I have been in charge since 1998. I know 14 years is a long time. Many managers, particularly in Italy, do not even last 14 months. "The most memorable result was a 1-1 draw in Latvia in 2001. It was a World Cup qualifying match and was our first-ever away point. That was a special moment for this country. "We are now in last position in the world but it is difficult because some countries in other parts of the world are always able to play weaker nations while we have to play against teams like England, Poland and Ukraine in qualifying. It is tough."
