Team history
A first EURO or World Cup finals appearance is still outstanding, despite several campaigns containing strong individual results.
A 1–1 draw away to world champions Italy in September 2006 and a 3–0 win in Romania in September 2008 are two important examples. Arminas Narbekovas, Valdas Ivanauskas and Edgaras Jankauskas connect the team's early post-independence years with later generations. Their club achievements and the national team’s tournament record are distinct parts of that football history.
