Klaipėda's "Atlantas" head coach Igoris Pankratjevas has decided to resign from his duties, announces the official website of the port city club.
The coach decided to step down due to the worsening results of the "Atlantas" team. According to the strategist, this was also influenced by unfavorable circumstances. During the reconstruction of the Klaipėda stadium, the residents of Klaipėda have to play their home matches on away fields, and the players do not have time to recover after the matches.
I. Pankratjevas stated that he no longer knows what needs to be done in order for the team's results to improve quickly. Currently, in the A League, "Atlantas" is in third place with 25 points.
The vacant coach's seat will be taken by Vacys Lekevičius. The scandalous coach will lead the team in the next match against the "Vilnius" club, which will take place this Saturday in Marijampolė.
