No one doubts that the Rimantas Viktoravičius students would have taken first place one way or another, but this would require the fourth round. In this case, Banga defeated Vilnius MFA Žalgiris-MRU at home and scored points early.
COVID-19. This review should start with the fact that the match in Gargždai between the Banga and MFA Žalgiris-MRU teams should have taken place a week ago, but a positive antibody test by a friend of the Žalgiris class forced them to be more careful and postpone the game.
Vilnius Legionnaire Insos Fischer’s non-participation in the party is also related to COVID-19 issues. He returned to Lithuania not long ago and was still forced to spend time in self-isolation.
Žalgiriai head coach Karolis Jasaitis did not have Adrija Skudutytė, who was injured in motocross competition in this duel, and four more representatives of the team returned from the national camp on Saturday alone and let’s face it … they played much worse than they could.
Lijana. We will not say anything new when we talk about the leader of “Banga” Lijan Gedminaitė. When she is on the field, the team of “tigers” is the same, in her absence, completely different. This time, Lijana announced her skills early in the match, when she slammed the ball off the crossbar. Later, after a standard situation, she was released, found herself alone against the rival goalkeeper and scored a tying goal. In the second half, she was free to find herself in two more situations, but then she didn’t do anything special.
Cards. In League A Women, yellow cards are a rare phenomenon, not to mention red cards. In this duel, two red cards and up to five yellow cards were shown. Yes, the girls did not forgive each other, but it was hard to imagine that it would turn into some kind of war.
The first red card was shown in the 59th minute. By this time, Banga was already leading after Vitalija Žatkina’s goal, and Monika Judeikytė provoked a bit of team captain Žalgiris Laura Ruzgutė. The latter was not controlled and was removed from the square. It is true that, in terms of M.Judeikytė, she was one of the best players of the second half on the field. On the left, she reigned in many situations.

VIDEO: League A women: FK “Banga” vs MFA “Žalgiris” -MRU
The second red card was shown to MFA Žalgiris-MRU coach Karolis Jasaitis during injury time. After an ambiguous decision by a judge, he was inundated with uncensored words and was taken out of the technical zone.
Matches. In a brief summary of the duel itself, the focus should be on defending the people of Žalgiris. She was one of the weakest of the entire season. In turn, the Banga girls’ faith in their own strength brought its result.
Tournament table. There were two intrigues left after the three rounds played. The champion is clear, the fourth place winner (Gargždai “Banga”) is practically clear, so it remains to be seen which team will take second place and which will take fifth place.
Vilnius was second after the first and second laps, and this unexpected failure brought them to third place. Undoubtedly, the fourth round duel of both Žalgiris promises to be the most interesting of this season.
The Utenos Utenis footballers, who started the season with a lot of fun, have been very stagnant lately. We will find out in the near future whether the strengthened ŠSG-FA Šiauliai team will benefit from this.
