The "TOPsport A league" returned to the city of Kretinga after more than 30 years – the last time it was played here was in the 1992-1993 season. In the 5th round, the Kauno rajono "Hegelmann" team, which played a good second half, achieved victory against Telšiai's "Džiugas," winning with a score of 2:0 (0:0).

In the first half, both teams failed to create real scoring opportunities – they exchanged attempts near the goal, and several shots were blocked. Towards the end of the half, Esmilis Kaušinis had the best chance after a mistake by Karolis Šilkaitis but missed the target.

The second half began with a dangerous situation after a corner taken by Lazaras Kojičius; that same player could have scored in the 55th minute after a pass from Leo Ribeiro, but the ball rolled past the rectangle. In the next moment, Davidas Martinas Anane and Oleksandras Kurcevas developed a beautiful attack, but Vilius Armalas, who defended well, blocked the shot. In the 59th minute, a dangerous attempt by Domantas Antanavičius in a similar situation was blocked by Danielso Nosegbe Suško.

In the 72nd minute, Hirotaka Yamada, shooting from a turnaround, was close to hitting the target, but the guests broke the ice in the attack when Njoya Abdelas Kaderas scored with an effective shot over himself after a lifted corner and a header from L. Kojičius. The Cameroonian was accurate again in the 79th minute when he directed the ball into the net with his head after a pass from L. Ribeiro.

After the victory in the 5th round of the "TOPsport A league," "Hegelmann" with 12 points caught up with Marijampolės "Sūduva," while "Džiugas," who suffered a defeat, ranked 6th in the tournament table with 6 points.
