In the second part of our European summer leagues review we look back at another six leagues
which fell upon the 2011 calendar year.
KAZAKHSTAN: FC Shakhter Karagandy (Played 32, Points 42) finished the season as
Kazakhstan Premier League champions but it didn't look so clear cut throughout the
season.
Just like in Scandinavia, the various football leagues of the Baltic States are approaching the
business end of the 2011 campaign. As well as Latvia, Lithuania and Estonia, this report will
feature Belarus.
Earlier this season the Latvian Virslīga looked like a one horse race as FK Ventspils stormed
into the lead when dropping just two out of thirty six points in their opening twelve games of the
season.
The various football leagues in the Baltic States are approaching the halfway stages of the 2011
campaign. Defending champions Flora Tallinn and FK Ekranas still remain unbeaten at the top of the
Estonian Meistriliiga and Lithuanian A Lyga respectively whilst Latvia's
Virsliga saw leaders FK Ventspils lose for a second time in less than a week.
