Italy coach Roberto Mancini sent his best wishes to San Marino side La Fiorita ahead of their match against Birkirkara the UEFA Europa Conference League.
The San Marino side open their European campaign on Thursday against Birkirkara in the first qualifying round of the UEFA Conference League at the Centenary Stadium, with kick-off time scheduled for 8pm.
La Fiorita players spent Tuesday night cheering on Italy in their semi-final clash against Spain at Wembley Stadium.
The Azzurri reached the Euro 2020 final after nail-biting penalty shoot-out victory over England at Wembley Stadium.
A few hours later, the La Fiorita officials received a pleasant surprise as Italy coach Mancini sent a short message to La Fiorita team manager Denis Casadei in which he wished the best of luck to the San Marino side ahead of their commitments in the UEFA Conference League.
