Unknown Player vs. Latvia (2:0) | Baltic Cup | 2005 in Lithuania |
While my first Lithuania shirt did come with a player print, it was not matchworn. Naturally, I thus went on a bit of a hunt to get a Lithuania matchworn shirt, which I eventually did. This particular one is a very rare Hummel design that Lithuania, to the best of knowledge, only ever wore once: In the Baltic Cup 2005. That Baltic Cup was a bit of a weird "tournament", as Estonia withdrew from the tournament and it was thus reduced to a single match between Lithuania and Latvia. However, to reframe that a bit more positively: I got a matchworn Lithuania shirt from a match that won them a trophy! Not bad, huh?
I got this shirt from a fellow collector for a mere 80€, which is a fair price for a Lithuania matchworn shirt, I guess. Apart from the joy of owning a Lithuania matchworn shirt, this one also has a decent design, in my opinion. It is not overly exciting, but the colour combination and the Hummels details to make it nice enough for a Baltic shirt from the early 21th century.
