The matches of the penultimate fifth round took place in Group 1 of Division D of the League of Nations
Division D
Group 1
Latvia – Moldova 1: 2
Naked: Ikauniks 55 – Revenko 26, Nikolaesku 45
Nothing critical has happened for Latvia, but the result can be seen as a wake-up call. And as a reminder that in the last round there will be no room for mistakes: you can lose first place and a ticket to Division C.
Latvia won the host match against Moldova 4: 2 and lost at home 1: 2. For the group before the end of the distance, the difference between the teams is only two points, which promise intrigue to the finish.
In the context of today’s match, we would like to point out the match for Latvia of former UPL representatives Kaspars Dubra (full match) and Andrejs Tsyganiks (82 minutes). The Moldovan national team has 36-year-old Vadim Bolohan in reserve. A long time ago he played for Zorya, Sevastopol, Transcarpathia and Karpaty.
In the final round, Latvia will play against Andorra and Moldova against Liechtenstein. The defeat of the Baltics could cost them first place if a competitor wins. A draw will do well for Latvia thanks to the better statistics of the head-to-head matches against Moldova.
Liechtenstein – Andorra 0: 2
Targets: Rosas 1, Cervos 80
Unlike the fight for first place, there will be no intrigue in the fight against relegation. Andorra calmly, in a balanced way, beat Liechtenstein on the road and determined the fate of the quartet’s underdog for this team.
The task of the last round for Liechtenstein is to get at least one point for not closing the cycle with zero.
