For Žalgiris, this was the first failure since June 24 and the first points lost after six wins in a row.
At the same time, it was Sūduva’s first win against Žalgiris this season, before Vilnius had defeated club Marijampolė in the LFF Super Cup (1: 0) and League A at home (4: 0), and the first battle by teams in Marijampolė ended in a draw 1: 1.
After winning, Sūduva again became the sole leader of League A with 35 points, beating Žalgiris (32 points). Until the end of the championship, the teams still have five games to play, and in one of them Sūduva and Žalgiris will meet in Vilnius.
In the match in Marijampolė, both teams lacked important players: Daniel Offenbacher and Andris Švrljuga were not in Sūduva due to injuries, and Ivanas Tatomirovičius was unable to help Žalgiris due to a red card in previous matches.
It is true that only the Ukrainian defender Jevgenas Jefremovas, who was introduced today, was already playing among the Marijampolė players, and defender Karlo Kamenaras appeared in the Žalgiris team after the change.
Although all the matches took place quite calmly and without major conflicts, the cauldron of emotions boiled during the added time of the match, when the most loyal fans of “Žalgiris”, who were sitting on the grass and asking J. Sefuva for help, J. Jefremov, scattered with plastic beer mugs.

Second half
90 + 4 min. Žalgiris still had a great chance to score, but the three in front of the goal sent the ball over the goal, not into the net. Marijampolė is celebrating.

| What is happening in Marijampolė is very ugly. Furious and desperate, the most active Vilnius fans “Žalgiris” began throwing mugs of beer at the liar newcomer from “Sūduva” J.Jefremovas. The “Žalgiris” players also began to reassure their fans. |
90 + 3 min. Emotions culminate on the field – players clash and push, but it doesn’t turn into more serious fights.
90 min. J. Jefremov lies on the ground, holding his leg, and a stack of plastic cups falls next to him: “Žalgiris” fans throw them at the Ukrainian “Sūduva”. In the stands, meanwhile, shouts of “shame, shame” are heard.

| Ladies and gentlemen, I am S. Kerla. Bosnis puts the ball back into the net of Žagiris’ goal after the corner kick. Defending triumphantly, the defender still made a demonstrative bow to the fans – he is the main actor in today’s performance. |
89 min. Objective! And again Semir Kerla, and again the corner – the Bosnian, who got a lot of freedom, jumped several defenders of “Žalgiris” and with a blow to the head left no chance for M.Berkovec. twenty.
88 min. J.Tadičius had a good chance, but his shot from the pleasant situation is stopped by the Žalgiris player who found the ball.
80 min. A great shot from A.Kaludžerovičius, and I. Kardumas hits the ball with just his fingertips. It is true that the goal would not have been taken into account either: soon the assistant referee’s flag will rise to the top and set it aside.

| Shot, shot and shot. Semiras Kerla was the first to reach the corner kick, but Žalgirio’s Martinas Berkovecas shoved the ball into the net. However, during the second corner, the Bosnian midfielder reached for his, found the ball right on the goal line and sent “Sūduva” fans into ecstasy. Žalgiris had less than 20 minutes of hope left. |
71 min. Objective! Initially, Semir Kerla’s attempt, who hit his head after the corner, was heroically stopped by M. Berkovec, but the chest, who got the second chance after another corner, did not make a mistake from several meters and took Marijampolė team forward – 1: 0.

| Andrija Kaludžerovičius, who recently joined the team and replaced Liviu Antalis, stepped up the attack against Žalgiris. So far the Serb hasn’t had anything impressive in League A, but perhaps he will shine in the most important moment? |

| 15 minutes have passed into the second half, but so far it doesn’t smell like a goal in Marijampolė. S. Širmelis invited Renana Oliveira, the Brazilian must appear in the square immediately, Eligijus Jankauskas will also enter. The coach lacks speed and technique on the field, it is visible to the naked eye, because Semir Kerla and Mihret Topčagičius’s traps, facing quick attacks, are not the best option. |
63 min. Probably the first best chance for “Sūduva” in the second half, but team newcomer J.Jefremov’s shot was off the mark.
56 min. Richie Enninas, a Canadian from Žalgiris, played well, but the guests were not allowed in until the last phase of the attack.
The first half
45 min. The first part ended without goals.

| So far, “Sūduva” has created two dangerous opportunities, and both times the attacks were perfectly sharpened by none other than the team’s newcomer, J. Jefremov. So far, the first Ukrainian pancake does not shine. |
31 min. Dangerous clash between Donovan Slijngard and Giedrius Matulevičius, after which Marijampolė were on the pitch for almost a minute. Fortunately, nothing happened to the Sūduva footballer: he got up and continued playing.

19 min. Saulius Mikoliūnas tried to shoot from afar, but the ball went into goal.

| After a painful 0: 3 loss to Saulius Širmelis, Kauno Žalgiris said last week that Sūduva cannot play in the “first number” at this time. The coach of the Lithuanian champions brought this idea to the field: Marijampolė’s team continues to defend patiently and wait for opportunities to face quick attacks. I have to admit that these tactics are paying off so far, because “Žalgiris” hasn’t had dangerous chances yet, and “Sūduva” has already shot several times at the opponent’s goal. |
14 min. The ball landed a few meters from Žalgiris’s goal, but none of Sūduva’s players managed to reach it and the result remained unchanged.
5 minutes. Josipas Tadičius had the opportunity to escape alone in front of the rival goalkeeper, but Croatian “Sūduva” was only inches from the ball.

| At the Marijampolė Stadium, famous chants from “Sūduva” fans are heard. 1,000 fans have gathered in the grandstand, as many as are currently allowed for open space events. The last entries melted this morning. |

| We can also take a look at the starting lineups. There are no big surprises in the “Žalgiris” list of names, but “Sūduva”, which just introduced Ukraine newcomer Yevgeny Yefremov, throws him into the fight against major competitors. It is officially announced that Andro Švrljuga has suffered an injury, so there is no one to fill the position of defense, Saulius Širmelis has to take a great risk. By the way, the people of Marijampolė will miss and protect Daniel Offenbacher, who is reportedly injured. Knowing that “Sūduva” does not shine in the middle of the square, the loss of an oyster is extremely painful. |

| Hello! Congratulations from Marijampolė, where the most important battle of the A league leaders will take place. Before the battle of “Sūduva” and “Žalgiris” in the second round we were talking about how the victory of Marijampolė would eliminate the intrigue in the fight for the title, but the situation has changed drastically and now both teams have 32 points each. And the wins, it seems, are on the side of “Žalgiris”, because the people of Vilnius have achieved a series of six victories, and here “Sūduva” is skating and does not find the key to a safe game. |
