Salaspils FS 1-0 Riga United FC
Riga United will now have 2 weeks off before their next game, to
pick themselves up after they lost 1-0 to Salaspils on
Monday.
For the most part, it was a very competitive game and there were
chances for both sides, the defence doing a very good job against a
notroiously strong attack. The game however will be marred by
the inexplicable second bookable offence for Jānis Pakalns, who is
now suspended for the next game. This is not the first case
when Riga United can't understand some of the referee's bizarre
decisions.
United fought back though and almost snatched a tough draw as Niels
Krause hit the woodwork in the 87th minute. However, it
wasn't to be and they will ready to take on rivals Upesciems on the
30th June, at home.
