On Tuesday and Wednesday, the first three matches of the 2024 FPRO LFF Cup quarter-final stage were played.
In the first match, two TOPsport A League teams faced each other - FA "Šiauliai" hosted Marijampolės "Sūduva" for the first time on a natural grass field.
The hosts took the lead first after a goal by Davio Ikaunieko, but soon the captain of Sūduva, Aleksandaras Živanovičius, equalized the score.
There were no more goals, so the match went into extra time. In it, both teams failed to score with accurate strikes, so everything had to be decided by a penalty shootout.
For some time, both teams scored penalties without errors, but the first to miss were the Šiauliai team. However, "Sūduva" also missed with an inaccurate shot. Later, the Šiauliai team converted their penalty, while Sūduva failed to score, ending the match with a victory for the Šiauliai club.
On Wednesday, two more matches took place - Klaipėda FM hosted Gargždai "Bangą," while FK "Jonava" met Mažeikių "Atmosfera" at their stadium.
In Klaipėda, the favorites Gargždai quickly took the lead and relieved tension with a quick goal. Throughout the match, Davido Afonso's pupils confidently controlled the situation, with the only stumbling block being a goal conceded at the end of the match.
Meanwhile, in Jonava, playing in a lower division, the Jonava team held out without conceding for a long time, but after the break, the Mažeikių team unlocked the opponent's goal twice and advanced to the quarter-final stage.
