According to what is, I believe, the Latvian FA official website, Vitalijs Maksimenko made his full Latvian debut today in a friendly in Japan. This is how Google Translate reports the occasion:-

"In preparation for the 2014 FIFA World Cup qualifying cycle game with Liechtenstein, the Latvian national football team on Wednesday, February 6, Kobe played the test match with Japan's national teams. With a score of 3:0 in the game victory the Japanese team, composed of two neatly broke Sinz Okazaki, another goal scored Keisuke Honda account.

Latvian national football team and the official Japan debut playing England Club "Brighton & Albion" guard Vitaly Maksimenko. We remind you that the game replicates LTV-7 fans will be able to watch tonight at 22:55 Latvian time.

Interest in the game in Japan very large

Stewards ceremony of the Japanese football association expressed their gratitude to the Latvian Football Federation (LFF) and personally to the President Guntis Indriksons turned out to support the Japan tsunami wave damage that affected. We remind you that the 2011 season of "Skint FC" club shirts bore the inscription "Gambari Japan", which translates to symbolize Japan's desire to work steadily and Set the target of the destruction wreaked by the tsunami recovery is achieved.

This match We also visited the Latvian Ambassador to Japan - Peter Vaivars, who, along with General John Mežecka LFF and the Japanese Football Association representatives shook hands stewards of its main characters - the two national teams football players. It should be noted that the match We watched the Japanese imperial family Joshiko Princess (Yoshiko - Japanese lang.).

Kobe City Stadium for the match was completely empty and the local fans with loud cheers welcomed home for all the games round. It should be noted that the match came to a couple of dozen of the Latvian flag colors of fans dressed. A special highlight of the game high organizational level, Japan in this respect have devised an almost perfect order.

Latvian national football team will return back to Latvian Friday, February 8, on a flight from Istanbul at 14:45 Latvian time.

Hope he continues to play and can cement a starting place. Would surely help him break into our first team, if he's getting FULL International games against the best in Europe.
