Malta To Face Andorra In Final UEFA Nations League Group Match

Malta To Face Andorra In Final UEFA Nations League Group Match
Local

The Maltese National Team are currently completing their last bit of preparations before taking on Andorra in their final UEFA Nations League D group game.

Despite beating Moldova last time out, the Maltese don’t have a chance for automatic promotion to League C due to an inferior head to head record.

Malta’s hopes of securing the top spot in their group were dashed last Saturday when Moldovan forward Virgiliu Postolachi scored a dramatic 92nd-minute winner against Andorra, earning his team three points and guaranteeing them first place and promotion from the group.

However Malta does have a guaranteed place in the promotion playoffs, meaning the nation’s dreams of finally achieving prmotion to a higher league are not dead yet.

In a press conference, Malta’s interim coach Davide Mazzotta stated that “We are a bit sad after Saturday’s result, but the group is in harmony,” and “The dream is lost, but our aim is to finish the group with nine points, equal to Moldova.”
