Outstanding performance
Górnik Zabrze•AttackerLech Poznań looked in control for long stretches after Allahyar Sayyadmanesh's 36th-minute goal, but Górnik Zabrze's dominant underlying numbers - more shots, more shots on target, and 60 dangerous attacks to Lech's 42 - eventually told the story. The hosts made their move after the hour mark, throwing on fresh legs including Erik Prekop, who transformed the match with two goals in a four-minute burst either side of the 80th minute. Prekop's first came off a blocked Kacper Urbanski effort and resulting corner, and his second arrived after his own initial shot was blocked, showing the persistence that defined Górnik's second-half push. For Lech, it's a damaging result on the road that will sting given their control of the first half, while Górnik's comeback provides real momentum given their struggles in the table this season.
