Georgia claimed a comfortable 2-0 victory over Lithuania in this international friendly, with Georges Mikautadze proving to be the decisive figure. The match remained goalless for the opening hour despite early yellow cards for both sides, before Lithuania's triple substitution on 62 minutes failed to spark the required improvement. Mikautadze broke the deadlock from the penalty spot on 70 minutes, then sealed the victory with a well-taken second goal six minutes from time. Lithuania's frustrations boiled over late on as Gvidas Gineitis was shown a second yellow card in the final minute, capping off a disappointing evening for the hosts who struggled to create meaningful chances throughout.
How entertaining was this match?
Lithuania hosts Georgia in an international friendly at Darius and Girėnas Stadium, with the home side riding momentum from their recent 2-0 victory over Moldova. Georgia enters as favorites despite mixed recent form, with star winger Khvicha Kvaratskhelia leading their attacking threat against Lithuania's improving defensive structure.
