Cup progress for Trakai
A 1‑0 win over Atlantas, a place in the next round, and the quiet arithmetic every supporter does on the walk home: how many more until a final?
Match5 Apr 2027
Trakai sink to position 7
4 points, and a fixture list that is running out. The mathematics are not yet cruel, but they are no longer kind.

Rati Grigalava keeps the receipts
“I remember the meeting. I remember exactly what was promised in it.” Trakai may remember it differently, which is precisely the problem.

Tempers go at Trakai
Mantas Lasickas was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.
Match3 Apr 2027
Utenis take the points off Trakai
Beaten 0‑1, and beaten fairly. The manager kept his words short afterwards, which was probably wise.
Squad5 Apr 2027
No hiding place for Mantas Lasickas
“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Mantas Lasickas, and the manager let it.

Words at Trakai training over how hard people work
Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Ignas Barauskas is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

Vykintas Klimavicius wants to come home
“I did not go to Atlantas to sit and watch. I want to come back to Trakai and fight for my place.” 4 appearances in 10 matches say the rest.
