A snowstorm passed through Kraków before the match, thus the players had to struggle with the snow for nearly the entire duration of the match. The pitch was slushy, which raised fears about being able to carry out quick attacks. A wet field is more conducive to defending than attacking, but Wisła paid no heed to this fact and immediately went on the offense. Paweł Brożek poured his heart out on the field as though he were playing for two. It appeared as though it had paid off to save “Brozio” on Wednesday for 45 minutes in the match against Lech, as the Wisła striker was bursting with energy on Saturday.
Paweł frist tried to defeat Przyrowski in the 14th minute. The Wisła striker received a nice pass on the left wing from his twin brother, ran into the penalty area, and took a shot on goal from the 16-meter mark. The ball sailed above the crossbar. Another thirteen minutes went by and it was already 1:0 for Wisła. It began with a nice play by Rafał Boguski, who drew Polonia’s defenders to himself and then passed the ball to the right to the unguarded Małecki. Kozioł cleared Małecki’s cross with the utmost difficulty, but Paweł Brożek was waiting behind his back, and managed to close the play by winning a corner kick. It was after this corner kick and a pass from Marek Zieńczuk that Brożek got hold of the ball and defeated the surprised Przyrowski with a cunning shot into the far corner of the goal.
While Polonia had played effectively against Wisła up until the loss of a goal by threatening Pawełek’s goal mainly after set plays, the Varsovians eased up after being scored upon. Wisła tried to take advantage of its rival’s vulnerability, with Paweł Brożek once again close to scoring. If the Wisła striker had hit the ball with a scissor kick after receiving a header pass from Marek Zieńczuk, we would have had a solid candidate for the best goal of the round. Paweł, however, failed to cleanly hit the ball.
Wisła’s players took to the locker room at halftime leading 1:0, having dominated their opponents for a significant part of the first half. However, coach Zieliński’s locker room talk with Polonia’s players changed the picture of the match. The Varsovians rushed to the attack after the break. Instead of waiting for Wisła on their own half, they decided to go on the offense. This strategy brought an effect just 10 minutes later when the Black Shirts’ evened the score. Although Marcelo managed to block Ivanovski as he tried to take a shot on goal from the 16-meter mark following a perpendicular pass from Majewski, nobody stopped Mierzejewski when he jumped on the rebound and powered a precise shot just inside the goal post, leaving Pawełek with no chance of saving the shot.
It took a while for Wisła to regain its rhythm, with coach Skorża helping the team by making three skillful substitutions. All three players substituted in proved themselves on the pitch, while Beto and Piotr Ćwielong markedly contributed to Wisła once again taking the lead. Both players took part in a play in which the ball circulated between Wisła’s players as though it were on a chain, while at the end, Pepe and Paweł Brożek exchanged passes, with the latter defeating Przyrowski with an artful slice.
Paweł, as if recalling his Friday promise to score two goals, most likely decided to spare Przyrowski, as the Wisła forward could have defeated him a third time. “Brozio” received an excellent perpendicular pass from Beto and was close to defeating the Black Shirts’ keeper in a one-on-one situation. Przyrowski nonetheless deflected Brożek’s shot and managed to defend Ćwielong’s rebound shot.
Emotions continued to run high up until the last seconds. Right before the referee’s final whistle, Polonia executed a free kick. Lato powered a shot from the 25-meter mark that was just wide of the goal post. Although the referee ended the match shortly thereafter, some fans continued to breathe heavily in the wake of the guests’ unused chance. The most important thing for them, however, was that Wisła had won a key match against Polonia, and passed the Warsaw team in the league rankings, thereby quieting those critics who had already sentenced the White Star to league mediocrity.
