Who rules the football fields of Ekstraklasa? Poles or players from abroad?
However, the “rapidists” took advantage of the passivity of the Gdansk defense at the beginning of the rematch. At the 16th minute. Kun caught the ball on the edge of the penalty area and decided to shoot from 15 meters away. The ball bounced off one of the residents of Gdansk, changed its flight path, and then hit the goal scored by Dusan Kuciak.
Did not help Lechia and the decisions of the arbitrators. A few moments later, at the border of sixteen, Jakub Kaluzinski fouled one of his opponents, but it seemed that the violation itself occurred before the penalty area. The referee did not agree and dictated an eleven-time score of the guests, which must have been used by Marco Grull.
The rulers of football of the future are starting to go crazy in Extraclass!
Thanks to this advantage, Rapid calmed the game and focused on avoiding threats in his own penalty area. He was looking for his chances, among others Lukasz Zwoliński, but the hosts could not find the way for the players from Austria. In the end, Lechia pressed and the Gdansk striker managed to score a goal in contact with Koperski’s assist! The hosts’ players continued to attack, but to no avail, although Lechia’s wards demanded a penalty after one of the guests’ games.
Until the final whistle, the result did not change and the Gdansk team said goodbye to European competition.
Lechia’s organizational disaster? It’s about the seats in the stadium
The organization of the entire match deserves special mention. The Gdańsk club crowded the fans to come to the stadium to fill the PGE Arena.

And the match itself aroused great interest in Tri-City.
