Extra-time defeat by FK Ventspils in the Latvian Cup final could have derailed their season, but knowing that victory would secure their maiden title, the Liepaja outfit returned to form with aplomb in a league rematch.

That took the team into the final against Metalurgs a fortnight later, and although Ventspils fell behind four minutes into extra time, Vits Rimkus and Igors Slesarcuks were both on target as they fought back to claim their third successive cup win.
