League Play-Off

Odigjani
Spectators: 37 (Terracing: 29, Seating: 8, VIP seats: 0) Dark clouds were building up when the players entered the field. None of the them looked very eager to play. Raimonds Milnītis started the match with the kick off. Raimonds Milnītis sent away a hard shot on goal in the 3rd minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. After 8 minutes, Stefans Rutks mouthed his way into the referee's book. The tension between the Odigjani and the FK Lakstene players grew even worse after the yellow card. Stefans Rutks kicked well hit freekick during the 8th minute of the match. If Raimonds Milnītis had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 11th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Saulvedis Mežainis kicked well hit freekick during the 37th minute of the match. After recieving a nice pass, Odigjani's Raits Devējs tried to score from far away in the 38th minute, but the ball went over the crossbar. In the 41st match minute, FK Lakstene was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Vikentijs Barsovnieks to maneuver through the defense. A hard shot 43 in the game by Elmārs Utināns from a close distance when the talented Dzintars Šostaks managed to make a qualified save. FK Lakstene's players were relieved.

The wind increased when Reinholds Ezis made the kick off in the second half. Lauris Starinskis showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Raimonds Milnītis, who was totally free with the ball in the 56th minute. Raimonds Milnītis struck a weak shot in the 58th minute. Lauris Starinskis didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for FK Lakstene. With a little luck, Odigjani's Lauris Starinskis got control of the ball when Bernhards Puliņš tried to sneak it across the goal line. After some fancy dribbling in the 62nd minute, Bernhards Puliņš managed to get in a good position for a shot. FK Lakstene's supporters rose to their feet, but Bernhards Puliņš was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Lauris Starinskis breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. After a rather tough play, FK Lakstene's Dāgs Virsaitis got a free kick in the 66th minute. After some fancy dribbling in the 67th minute, Raits Devējs managed to get in a good position for a shot. Odigjani's supporters rose to their feet, but Raits Devējs was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Dzintars Šostaks breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. In the 71st minute Reinholds Ezis shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Dzintars Šostaks saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Elmārs Utināns struck a weak shot in the 73rd minute. Dzintars Šostaks didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Odigjani. Raimonds Milnītis received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 75th minute. Lauris Starinskis tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. If Raimonds Milnītis had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 77th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. After a rather tough play, FK Lakstene's Vikentijs Barsovnieks got a free kick in the 79th minute. Dzintars Šostaks took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Reinholds Ezis, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. In the 82nd minute of the match, Raimonds Milnītis tried to roll the ball into the goal by the right post, but Lauris Starinskis saw his intentions and got control of the ball before it passed the line. Raimonds Milnītis fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 83rd minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Lauris Starinskis having to interfere. Raimonds Nusbergs's late challenge caught a Odigjani's player on the shin and left him crawling around in pain. The referee blew his whistle and produced the yellow card. Raimonds Nusbergs helped the player get up and apologised. A collision led to FK Lakstene getting a freekick after 85 minutes play. Raimonds Nusbergs hit a great ball. Raits Devējs was probably a little too eager to shoot when he, in the 86th played minute, shot the ball from way out. The shot was hard, but the ball flew wide of the goal. Dzintars Šostaks showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Reinholds Ezis in the 89th minute of the match. FK Lakstene were disappointed that they only managed a draw, even though they felt themselves to be the better team.
