Thanks. :thmbup:

Can you translate that into Lithuanian? I assume the Spartak rivalry is from the USSR days. Are they still the main rivals or is there some sort of Vilinius derby?

I clicked on "Istorija." The founding year appears to be 1977 or 1983...

It's hard to say year exactly, cause it all started as political meetings/walks on the streets after matches in late 70s. First flags and some fan-grouping came after 1982 or 1983 when Zalgiris qualified for USSR highest league.

And yeah, Spartak is enemy No1 from those days, as in Lithuania now all fan groups are friendly with each other. And it was resurrected last year when Atlantas played Spartak in Intertoto Cup.

Vilnius has 2 more teams in league, but there is no such traditional derbies. Simply because both are only 2 seasons here, one has no fans at all, other's you could count on your fingers.
