On Sunday at Karłowicza Street, coach Piotr Łęczyński's players, after a very good match, defeated the leader, pushing them down to second place and strengthening their position on the league podium.

Women's football league: POGOŃ Szczecin - GÓRNIK Łęczna 3:2 (1:0); 1:0 Lena Świrska (44), 1:1 Anna Rędzia (49), 2:1 Weronika Szymaszek (65 penalty), 3:1 Anastasija Poluhovica (84), 3:2 Maja Hrelja (86).

Pursuit: Natalia Radkiewicz - Alicja Dyguś, Julia Brzozowska, Weronika Szymaszek, Zuzanna Radochońska - Zofia Giętkowska (67 Isabella Cook), Suzuka Yosue, Alexis Legowski, Lena Świrska, Dakyeong Choi (79 Maja Leśkiewicz) - Anastasija Poluhovica

Amidst the loud cheering of the large crowd, the Szczecin team attacked from the outset, launching numerous well-organized moves, but they didn't score their first goal until just before halftime, courtesy of a shot from Świrska. Shortly after the break, following one of the Łączna team's few offensive moves, the visiting team equalized, with Rędzia scoring a well-placed shot. In the 65th minute, Szymaszek was held in the penalty area and a penalty was awarded, which the injured player converted, and Poluhovica extended her lead late in the game. Minutes later, Górnik scored a consolation goal, but the leaders were unable to muster any more.

"We completely dominated, had plenty of scoring opportunities, and in addition to three goals, we also hit the crossbar. Górnik, on the other hand, showed fantastic efficiency, scoring two goals from two promising plays," said Artur Dmowski, president of the Pogoń women's team. ©℗ (mij)
