Almost three months after the first round of the national soccer championship, the second is played this weekend.
On Saturday, the first prolonged silence was broken by two Vilnius clubs: “Žalgiris” and “Riteriai”, who met in an empty LFF stadium, to which spectators have not yet been admitted.
This time, the people of Žalgiris, who is considered one of the main favorites of the championship, did not justify his status this time and lost to his early rivals. 0: 1 (0: 1)
The only goal in the 19th minute was scored by “Caballeros” forward Justinas Marazas. Goalkeeper Tadas Simaitis defended his strength wonderfully throughout the match.
In the emotional match, a total of eight yellow cards were shown, including a warning to Mindaugas Čepas, who demanded a penalty of 11 meters.
The probability of the Knights’ victory before the duel was estimated to be less than 10 percent.
It is true that last year “Žalgiris” won only one of five derbyes in the capital.
Strict restrictions will also apply in Saturday’s second game, at 5 p.m. Banga and Panevėžys will meet at the Gargždai City stadium.
At that time, two days later, on Monday, the Marijampolė “Sūduva”, which will continue its March A marches and which will house “Kauno Žalgiris” at home, will already have a milder quarantine regime. According to the Government resolution this week, from June 1. Up to 300 spectators will be able to watch sporting events.
All A-League matches are broadcast live on Delfi TV and the Delfi portal.
By the way, the players of both teams were evaluated for COVID-19 and all were negative.
The Žalgiris people started the season with a great 4: 0 victory against Panevėžys, and the Knights did not equal Kaunas Kaalgiris even 0: 3.
