„Žalgiris“ defeated „Petrovac“ 2:1 at home and 3:1 away, thus reaching the next stage of the Conference League by the most direct route.
However, not everyone knew how to celebrate properly. The club president Andrius Tapinas and the Facebook page „Žaliai baltas Vilnius“ published posts in which club fans behaved aggressively towards other passengers on the bus and shouted propagandistic Russian slogans.
„Maybe someone would recognize this citizen, who somehow ended up in the active support sector, and then, wearing Vilnius „Žalgiris“ attributes, expressed love for Russia and attacked other passengers while riding the bus. It was on Thursday before midnight on bus 53 and he got off somewhere around Kalvarija,“ A. Tapinas wrote on social networks.
„God forbid, I am not planning any witch hunt. I just want to contact him and buy all our club’s green-white attributes from him at a good price so he won’t flaunt them. And also to tell him about the club’s attitude towards Russian fans attending the matches.“

Earlier, the publication was shared by „Žaliai baltas Vilnius“.
„To the ‘sweet couple’ who were on bus 53 around 23:50 after the match on Thursday, we invite you to visit tomorrow’s match in the RD sector or the July 30 match against „Dinamo“ in the PC sector. There we want to hear live how you shout ‘Slava rassija’.
The biggest nightmare we can imagine is people with the „Žalgiris“ logo and scarf glorifying Russia in Russian and even explaining: ‘I was born here.’ Of course, all this is said in the occupiers’ language. This is one of those things we will definitely not tolerate and will not overlook,“ the club fans’ page expressed indignation.
