In the team meeting Latvia demanded that Lithuania–Estonia match should be re-played first. Latvia was hoping for an advantage against tired Lithuanian team in their match. Lithuania and Estonia disagreed noting that Latvia had won their match against Estonia, so Latvian win against Lithuania would grant Latvians the championship and end the tournament. Consensus was not reached and Latvian team left the same day. The championship was not awarded.Eesti välispoliitika Balti suund 1926-1934 https://dspace.ut.ee/bitstream/handle/10062/54253/medijainen_eesti_valispol_1991_ocr.pdf?sequence=1&isAllowed=y University of Tartu 30 May 2018Balti turniir lõppes fiaskoga. https://dea.digar.ee/cgi-bin/dea?a=d&d=maahaal19330906.2.91&st=1&l=et dea.digar.ee Maa Hääl 6 September 1933 30 May 2018 Results 2 September 1933 16:30 (+2:00) LTU 1 – 1Abandoned yes Report EST Citavičius 55 15 Kuremaa Kaunas Kariuomenės stadionas 3,000 Yrjö Tuhkunen (Finland) Match abandoned at 1–1 due to darkness after first period of extra time.https://www.rsssf.org/tablesb/baltic-overview.html Baltic Cup Overview 16 June 2021 RSSSF 22 May 2022 Refixture 5 September 1933 LTU Cancelled EST Kaunas Kariuomenės stadionas 3 September 1933 16:30 (+2:00) EST 0 – 1 Report LAT 35 Šeibelis Kaunas Kariuomenės stadionas 3,000 Yrjö Tuhkunen (Finland) 4 September 1933 16:00 (+2:00) LTU 2 – 2Abandoned Report LAT Sabaliauskas 33Lingis 55 52 65 Pētersons Kaunas Kariuomenės stadionas 3,000 Yrjö Tuhkunen (Finland) Match abandoned at 2–2 due to darkness.
