Video: A surprisingly absolutely brilliant compilation of highlights from Lithuanian football

We realise that you might be a bit sceptical about this, but trust us, it’s great.

We realise that you might be a bit sceptical about this, but trust us, it’s great.

We’ll admit it from the outset; we don’t know a whole lot about Lithuanian football. We know that they were partly responsible for one of the worst results in the history of Irish football (a 0-0 draw in a qualifier for the 1998 World Cup) but apart from that our knowledge is slim at best.

We’ll be keeping a closer eye on it from now on, however, after watching this absolutely brilliant compilation of clips from football in the country which comes with the excellent title ‘Lithuanian football: where amazing happens’.

Granted, some of the clips belong more in a blooper reel than a highlight compilation but the music’s great and we certainly got a great kick out of it, particularly the clips on what must be some of the most waterlogged pitches in the world.
