We have two more battles ahead of us in Group A: against Kazakhstan and Costa Rica. Both teams have already played: the Kazakhs won 6: 1.
The Lithuanians entered the game quite nervous and missed the goal early. A stupid mistake turned into a Venezuelan goal, scored by Carlos Sanz.
In just a few minutes, the euphoria was already exploding among the Lithuanians. Captain Justinas Zagurskas scored from the penalty spot.
After the break, our clients worked patiently on defense and even caused 5 fouls from their opponents. In futsal this means that all other penalties would send ours to the 10m penalty spot.
With just two and a half minutes remaining, Lithuania collapsed. From Alfredo Vidalis when picking up a failed clearance from the defense after a great cross from the right wing. Making the score 1-0.
Lithuania had a very good chance with 20 seconds to go, but in the last minute the defender blocked the shot.
