The Saturday match marathon of the "TOPsport A League" in the 35th round began in the City of Sun. The visiting team from Telšiai, "Džiugas," took control of the score from the start of the match and decisively defeated FA "Šiauliai" with a score of 3:0 (2:0).

The guests surged ahead in the 15th minute – after a pass from Tomas Dombrauskis into the penalty area, Davidas Brazao scored with a header, and shortly after, Davis Ikauniekas posed a threat on the other side. In the 23rd minute, Danielis Romanovskis deceived several opponents and took a shot, which was saved by Marius Paukštė.

In the 26th minute, the score doubled when D. Brazao's shot was deflected by the goalkeeper, and Nino Noordanus sent the rebound into the net, while at the end of the first half, Lukas Paukštė dealt with a long shot from the opponents.

The second half was sharply initiated by D. Ikauniekas, who repeatedly threatened the opponents' goal, but the visitors managed to keep their goal "dry." In the 62nd minute, the Latvian continued to bombard, but just like before, he fell short of hitting the target. In the 77th minute, the Telšiai team scored a third goal – Dejan Traikovski managed to score from the corner arc.

After the 35th round match of the "TOPsport A League" in Šiauliai, the Telšiai team rose to the 7th position in the league table with 39 points, while Mindaugas Čepas's troops remain in fourth place with 42 points.
