NFA took all three points against Hegelmann II with a 2:1 win in the 1 Liga regular season, round 20 on 14 August 2026. The visitors had gone ahead inside the quarter-hour before the hosts snatched victory in stoppage time.
And here's the thing — you could say this was the kind of game that lives and dies on moments rather than possession. D. Sinkevicius opened the scoring in the eighth minute, catching the defence a fraction too deep.
T. Gudaitis equalised shortly after, the sixteenth minute finding him unmarked near the penalty spot. To be fair, the visitors had pushed forward and left space behind.
By then the match had settled into something familiar, and then M. Dziugas was there in 90+3 minutes to drag NFA back into contention. He worked a short corner, the ball came back across the face of goal, and he struck first time.
Both sides traded attacks with almost identical frequency — 104 for NFA, 105 for Hegelmann II — but the visitors could not turn volume into goals. They registered four shots on target and six off, yet came away with nothing from the extra pressure.
The table tells the wider story. NFA sit third with 44 points from 22 games, while Hegelmann II remain twelfth on 22 points after 23 matches. This result closes the gap further and extends a run of inconsistency for the visitors.
NFA had lost three of their last four before this win, including heavy defeats against Minija and Jonava. Hegelmann II's three consecutive losses followed a 3:1 victory over Garliava, but the momentum has clearly shifted.
