Match report
Belarus secured a 4-0 win for Belarus over San Marino in the UEFA Nations League on Saturday, October 3, after a goalless first half. The final score was 4-0, with Belarus scoring four goals and San Marino finishing with no goals.
A striking feature of the match is the contrast between the emphatic scoreline and the recorded shot totals: Belarus had 3 shots and San Marino had 1, with neither side registering a shot on target. The result is clear; the available match figures do not describe how the goals were scored.
How it unfolded
The teams reached the interval at 0-0. Belarus then scored four goals after the break to turn the level score into a 4-0 result. The goalscorers and sequence of those goals are not specified.
The numbers
Possession was 66% for Belarus and 34% for San Marino. That split shows Belarus had more of the ball, while the shot count remained low for both sides. Possession and attempts measure different parts of a match: the former indicates which team held the ball more often, while the latter records efforts to score. Here, those measures sit alongside a result that gave Belarus a substantial margin.
