In the Scottish Premiership today, Daniels Balodis played the entire match as his team, St Johnstone F.C., faced a narrow defeat against Dundee United, losing 0-1.
The 26-year-old Latvian defender was a key player in St Johnstone’s previous match, where they achieved their first win against Celtic in nine years. Daniels scored an early header, marking his first goal for the club and ultimately providing the only goal of the game.
Today, St Johnstone took on another top table team, Dundee United, who were positioned fifth in the league prior to this match. Balodis was once again included in the starting lineup, making his eighth league appearance.
St Johnstone conceded the only goal of the match in the 25th minute, when Emmanuel Adegboyega scored. This match marked the conclusion of the regular season for St Johnstone, after which the league will split into two groups: the championship group and the relegation group.
St Johnstone will have five more games left against lower-ranked teams, and they are entering it as the underdogs since they are currently at the bottom of the league table, five points behind Dundee FC, who are in 11th place.
