Crisis show: Lithuanian national team lost to Estonia after overtime



[ad_1]

Lithuanians in Estonia fell 92:85.

K. Kriisa, who previously represented Kaunas “Žalgirius”, played an impressive match. The young man scored 26 points and made 7 assists.

It was K. Kriisa’s triples and passes during overtime that ensured a somewhat unexpected victory for Estonians. The Lithuanians had advanced after M. Grigonis’ three-point lead (82:85), but since then the hosts have scored ten unanswered points.

The Lithuanian national team started this duel with the following five: Marius Grigonis, Rokas Jokubaitis, Eimantas Bendžius, Marekas Blaževičius, Arnas Butkevičius. The eleven students of D. Maskoliūnas appeared at the party.

Marius Grigonis (14), who scored points with free throws, and L. Lekavičius (12), who spoke at the end, seemed to be the strongest among Lithuanian leaders. Tomas Dimša and Laurynas Birutis scored 11 points each, the center added eight rebounds.

True, it was rebounding and it became one of the main reasons for the loss. Estonians bounced up to 19 balls below the Lithuanian basket.
