Pieno zvaigzdes — Varenos: 35:27, Lietuvos Lyga

Pieno Zvaigzdės defeated Varenos 35:27 in the Lithuanian League on Saturday, 19 September 2026, at home in Mažeikiai. The hosts had started their campaign with a draw, while the visitors were making their first appearance of the season.

The final score reflected a comfortable margin for the home side, though the opening quarter of the match against Dragunas Klaipėda had ended 23:36 the previous week. Varenos, who had not played since April, were testing themselves against a side that already knew how to compete.

By then, Pieno Zvaigzdės carried one point from their solitary fixture, sitting in sixth place with a game to their name. Varenos arrived in fourth position on the old table, but with zero games and zero points the standings said nothing yet about where they would finish.

Three scores in the high twenties from the visitors in their last outings suggested a side capable of grinding out results, but the margin here was clear. The hosts took control early and did not let go, while Varenos found themselves chasing from the opening exchanges.

The result leaves Pieno Zvaigzdės with two points after two matches and Varenos with zero from one. The gap in the table is still small, but the hosts have already proven they can match whatever the league throws at them.
