“Jordi Sánchez opens the scoring for Pogoń Szczecin after a spell of Piast pressure yielded nothing, punishing the hosts on the counter.”
Pivotal“Piast level almost instantly through Samuel Ntamack, who gets his reward after being denied earlier in the half.”
Pivotal“Darko Churlinov restores Pogoń's lead, converting after Jakub Labojko's shot was saved and a corner followed, giving the visitors the win.”

Outstanding performance
Pogoń Szczecin•AttackerPiast Gliwice dominated the ball, finishing with 67% possession and 527 passes to Pogoń's 262, but couldn't convert that control into a result against a Pogoń side content to sit back and strike on the break. The visitors were ruthlessly efficient, scoring twice from just eight shots while making 26 tackles to Piast's five, a stark illustration of a disciplined, low-block defensive approach paying off. Jordi Sánchez's 26th-minute opener, following two Piast corners that came to nothing at the other end, was cancelled out almost immediately by Samuel Ntamack, but Darko Churlinov's 57th-minute finish - set up by Paul Omo Mukairu after a Jakub Labojko chance was saved - proved the difference. For Piast, sitting in the relegation zone, it's another damaging home defeat that piles pressure on a side struggling for form, while Pogoń's smash-and-grab win keeps them firmly in the title conversation.
