Today, at the Vilnius "Žalgiris" Stadium, the second round of the Intertoto Cup will take place, where Vilnius team "Vėtra" will face the Edinburgh club. The match will start at 18:00, with a refereeing crew from Poland.
In the first match in Scotland, the teams played a 1-1 draw. Garry O'Connor stood out during that game.
This return match could have taken place at the new "Vėtra" stadium (formerly "Lokomotyvas"), but due to licensing processes, the club management decided to postpone the opening of the stadium and play at the "Žalgiris" Stadium.
Yesterday, the Scottish team arrived in Vilnius a few hours late and held a training session at the "Žalgiris" Stadium at 18:30, which was closely watched by "Vėtra" coach Valdas Ivanauskas. "Hibernian" coach Tony Mowbray didn't seem too concerned about this, as he was more focused on his team's chances, especially since the club had recently signed contracts with two players from the Northern Ireland U-21 team - Sam Morrow and Dean Shiels.
Along with the "Hibernian" team, a considerable number of fans also arrived in the Lithuanian capital. According to club representatives, there should be about three hundred of them.
Tickets for adults to the match will cost 10 litas, while entry is free for individuals under 16 years old who present an age-identifying document. We invite all football fans to come to the stadium to support "Vėtra," and for those who can't make it, we recommend following the live results section on the Results portal.
