In Tonybet Virslīga Matchday 6, BFC Daugavpils stunned league leaders FK Auda with a 3-2 away victory, securing their third consecutive win, while FK Liepāja continued to struggle, playing out a 1-1 draw at home against FS Jelgava.
In a lively encounter, Daugavpils took the lead in the 23rd minute when Joel Yakubu finished from close range after a great individual effort. Auda responded immediately after the break, with Mélèye Diagne equalising in the 46th minute following a quick counterattack. However, the visitors regained control soon after, as Mamadou Sylla curled a superb effort into the top corner in the 50th minute, before Rostand Ndjiki made it 3-1 just past the hour mark after a well-worked move, scoring a goal in the third straight game since making his debut for Daugavpils.
Auda pushed hard in the closing stages and reduced the deficit in the 82nd minute through Eduards Dašķevičs, setting up a tense finish. The home side created several late chances, with Josué Vergara and Dašķevičs both denied by Daugavpils goalkeeper Jānis Beks, who played a key role in preserving the lead. Despite heavy pressure and multiple attempts in stoppage time, Daugavpils held firm to claim an impressive win over the league leaders.

Meanwhile in Liepāja, the hosts once again failed to turn performance into victory. FS Jelgava struck early through Tomáš Rataj in the 6th minute, finishing a move initiated by goalkeeper Adam Dvorak long-kick. Liepāja responded with sustained pressure but lacked precision in front of goal, hitting the woodwork and forcing several saves from Dvorak. Their persistence finally paid off in the 76th minute, when Rodolphe Ekou converted from close range following a corner.
Both sides had chances to snatch a late winner, but neither could find the decisive goal. Jelgava will feel they let a lead slip, while Liepāja’s inconsistent start to the season continues, as they are once again left searching for answers after dropping points at home.
