The 2012 Baltic Cup was a football competition which was held on 1–3 June 2012 in Estonia.[1][2]
Format
[edit | edit source]For the first time, Finland took part in the competition. As a result of this, the round-robin format was changed to knock-out tournament, as Latvia did not agree to play more than two matches.[1] As a result of this, penalty shoot-outs were used to decide the winner if a match was drawn after 90 minutes.[3]
Stadiums
[edit | edit source]Tamme Stadium in Tartu was used for the matches involving Estonia and Võru Stadium in Võru was the host for the other two matches. Tehvandi Stadium in Otepää and Viljandi linnastaadion in Viljandi were also to be used, but were unavailable for the time period.[4]
