Two games, two difficult exams. In this way, it was possible to describe the situation of “Sūduva” before the final of the LFF on Saturday, because next weekend there is still a match against Vilnius “Žalgiris”, which will determine the winners of league A.
Mihretas Topčagičius, Eligijus Jankauskas and Valerijus Šabalas did not take S. Širmelis to Panevėžys and were left with only one striker, Josip Tadic.
I would not go into in-depth analysis, there will be someone who will do them
Recently, Sūduva, who has not shown a game, has not shone at the Aukštaitija stadium and paid it after a 120-minute fight and a series of 11-meter penalties.
“We didn’t really have to rotate forward, we didn’t really plan to go to the final with just one striker. Yesterday there were two more, today we only had one. Yesterday, Mihretas Topčagičius was injured during training, Elgigijus Jankauskas and Valerijus Šabala fell for others. reasons. There was a huge shortage of front-line players. ” 15 minutes S.Širmelis spoke after the match.
Gleb Kluškinas was not ready to play due to injury.
The coach always has to take responsibility, I can do so much without much expansion
“There was a lack of freshness, Eligius’ speed would have been useful. But justifying is not something. There are these players, the same players defeated” Žalgiris “, the strategist recalled.

For many of those who watched the cup final match, it could turn out that Panevėžys wanted more wins. When asked about it, S. Širmelis said: “Well, it was not possible that we did not want to. Of course, for Panevėžys it was a matter of life and death, they could secure a place in the European League team with this match. His enthusiasm overflowed. “
The coach was not surprised by the desire of the opponents and the fight for every ball. According to S. Širmelis, this should never come as a surprise in the final.
Still, looking at the records of his team’s last matches, S. Širmelis shouldn’t be satisfied. But that’s why you search with 15 minutes the coach was not in the mood to begin with.
“I would not go into in-depth analysis, there will be someone who will. Now is not the time for rigorous analysis. There are neither one nor two reasons. “The coach should always take responsibility, as much as he can without expanding too much,” said the coach enigmatically.
S.Širmelis failed the first exam, but after a week he can put aside this failed final in Panevėžys, because in Vilnius, against “Žalgiris”, the Marijampolė players will play the matches that will determine the champions of league A. “Sūduva” has more points and enough draws to win the title and a ticket to the UEFA Champions League team again in Marijampolė.
“The key now is to lick the wounds we have to have the potential ahead. Of course, we will fight. We will not change anything in particular, but we have something to analyze from those cup matches with Žalgiris. You need to focus, there is nothing to seriously think about improving quality. It is not things that will determine here, they will determine how they do today: fights, humor. I think we won’t need a lot of motivation, “said S. Širmelis.
