He became head coach of the Lithuanian national team on 14 August 2008.[2] In his first competitive match as manager, Lithuania defeated Romania 3–0 in Cluj-Napoca for a 2010 FIFA World Cup qualifier. After that, they beat Austria 2–0 at home, and the Faroe Islands 1–0. They did not, however, qualify for the World Cup tournament in South Africa.
