MALTA v LITHUANIA IN WARM-UP MATCH

On the 8th June our senior national team will confront Lithuania in a warm-up friendly match at the Ta’ Qali National Stadium prior to the competitive one against Bulgaria four days later.  This will be a useful work-out for Pietro Ghedin’s team which will give him the opportunity of trying out his game plans with different players. It will be the third time the countries are playing each other. The first one was in the now defunct Rothmans Tournament at Ta’ Qali when we shared two goals with our opponents and the second was a friendly match also played on home soil which we lost 4-1. PREVIOUS ENCOUNTERS 11 February 2002 MALTAvs- Lithuania1-1 (RT)15 November 2006 MALTAvs- Lithuania1-4 (F) (RT)        -   Rothmans International Friendly Tournament(F)           -   Friendly Match In the European Qualifiers, Lithuania who are ranked 100th in the FIFA World Rankings, have so far managed 2 wins (away to San Marino and home to Estonia), and are currently placed 4th in Group E with 6 points. Tickets for the match of the 8th June, which kicks off at 20:00hrs, are now available online from www.mfa.com.mt. For ticket information CLICK HERE
