It is possible, that UEFA Europa League match between Zalgiris Vilnius and Red Bull Salzburg will be cancelled because of the damages made by the fans of the Polonia Vilnius soccer club in the stadium of the Lithuanian Soccer Federation.

There were a number of incidents registered after Wednesday's game between two Vilnius clubs, namely the Polonia club and the Zalgiris-3 club (with the result of Polonia-Zalgiris-3 1:0). Among others, a large hole in the artificial turf was burned after a firecracker was thrown from the fan zone of Polonia club. Hence, the field has to be repaired and it is difficult to predict how much time it will take. Maybe there will be a need to repair a full line in the stadium, which hosts top-level matches of the national team. Therefore it is impossible to guarantee that the stadium will be available for the UEFA Europa League return match between Zalgiris and Salzburg taking place on 29th August.
