Faroe Islands 3-1 Liechtenstein
The Faroe Islands recovered from a goal down at half-time to beat Liechtenstein at home in an international friendly tonight.

Back with a vengeance
The Faroese came back with a vengeance from a goal behind as Christian Jacobsen equalised early in the second half from close range after a cross from John Petersen from the right.

Benjaminsen capitalises
Frodi Benjaminsen capitalised on a corner to put the Faroese ahead on 75 minutes and Julian Johnsson found himself in plenty of space to score a third as Liechtenstein pushed forward.
