Super Nova 0–2 FK Auda Riga | Latvian Higher League

FK Auda Riga continued their strong push up the Latvian Higher League table with a composed 2–0 victory over Super Nova at a humid evening match on 21 June 2026. The away side controlled large stretches of the game and took their chances efficiently, leaving the hosts with little to show for their efforts.

Match Overview

From the opening whistle, FK Auda Riga looked the sharper side. Their high press forced Super Nova into early errors, and the breakthrough came in the 23rd minute when a well-worked corner routine ended with a powerful header from central defender Artūrs Zjuzins. The visitors doubled their lead just before half‑time through a swift counter‑attack finished by winger Dāvis Ikaunieks, who slotted past the onrushing goalkeeper.

Super Nova attempted to rally after the interval, introducing fresh legs in midfield, but Auda’s disciplined defensive shape limited the hosts to only a few speculative efforts from distance. The home side’s best chance came in the 67th minute when substitute striker Mārtiņš Kļušs saw his close‑range volley brilliantly tipped over by Auda keeper Rihards Matrevics.

Key Stats and Impact

Auda finished with 56% possession and registered eight shots on target compared to Super Nova’s three. The victory lifted Auda into fifth place in the league standings, while Super Nova remain in the bottom half, now winless in four matches.

What’s Next

Auda will look to build on this result when they host Valmiera next weekend. Super Nova, meanwhile, face a crucial trip to bottom‑side Metta as they fight to escape the relegation zone.
