Championship rookie Telšiai “Džiugas” started the Optibet A League season on a triumphant trend, enjoying the first victory at home.
The team coached by Marius Šluta defeated the Kaunas district footballers “Hegelmann Litauen” 2: 1 (1: 0) in the 1st round duel after a very persistent fight.
In the first half, the initiative was taken by one or the other team. The 20-year-old goalkeeper Povilas Survila, who debuted in the Lithuanian championship, faced blows from Klaudijus Upstas and Nauris Petkevičius, and on the other side of the field, the insidious step of the player “Džiugas” almost appeared in the net.
In the 44th minute, “Džiugas” shuddered: after a big raid, Leonardo Antonio found Adam Mika, who passed the pass to the Japanese Yudai Koike, who shot with a perfect touch.
Not to mention that, not even a minute later in the second half, Telšiai’s team doubled the score when Leo Ribeiro, who jumped against goalkeeper Ignas Plūkas, successfully beat point-blank range.
Soon, Hegelmann Litauen club strategist Andrius Skerla threw Levan Macarashvili into the fight, who revived his team’s attacks. However, the guests were unable to score a goal for some time, and in the 77th minute N. Petkevičius, who produced a red card for Tomas Rapalavičius, was sent to the locker room.
Andrius Lipskis left the field with a smile on his face as he was substituted in the 82nd minute, when his team had the lead, and Vilius Armanavičius was his replacement.
Kaunas District Club, who played ten, organized a goal attack, but did not score a leveling goal. The Telšiai club resisted and achieved a great victory.
