The Kaunas team actively started the match, but did not take advantage of the opportunities they had. “Dziugas” also had good opportunities – they failed to turn them into goals.
After the break, Christian Bella had a good chance, Ignas Plūkas dealt with the Cameroonian’s attempt. The temporary strategist Nerijus Mačiulis threw Gratas Sirgėdas and Armandas Kučis into the fight after the substitution – both of them created an attack that ended in a goal.
In the 63rd minute, A. Kučys shot accurately, so Marius Paukštė did not miss a goal for even 603 minutes. It was not the end: in the 77th minute, the ball bounced thankfully to A. Kučius in the penalty area – with 4 goals, the forward became the top scorer of the championship.
The 87th point was scored by Artūras Dolžnikovas, who realized his own earned penalty. Joaquim Domingos, who replaced the injured Emilis Gasiūnas, made a dangerous shot in the ranks of “Džiugo” – the ball flew close to the post.
This is just the second victory of “Kaunas Žalgiris” this A-League season. After this victory, Žalgiris climbed to the 8th place in the A league.
Meanwhile, “Džiugas” ranks third in the A league.
