#CzasNaBelek: Turkey's first goalless test
FC Nassaji Mazandaran is Wisła's first friendly match. The match, played in Belek, Turkey, yielded no goals, but it served as a valuable training session for the Kraków team.
The opening minutes showcased aggressive play from both teams, who refused to back down. The match began with a series of fouls, but there were no clear-cut chances until the seventh minute, when Sapała intercepted the ball in midfield, but the opposing goalkeeper caught it. Moments later, Jaroch attempted a shot after a play, but his shot went wide of the post.
The following minutes saw no change in the complexion of the game, with the opposition still unable to threaten the R22. The 29th minute saw a fine move by the White Star, but Sobczak lifted the ball over the crossbar.
Although no goals were scored in the final phase of the first half, the Krakow team maintained their advantage. Only in the 40th minute did the visitors enter the White Star's penalty area, but Farzad was stopped legally and a penalty was out of the question.
No break after the break
There were some personnel changes in Wisła's squad during the break, but the game pattern remained unchanged. A rough play earned a yellow card for Alan Uryga, who fouled an opponent near midfield. The 59th minute saw a chance for the Iranian team, but Raton cleared the ball first, and the attempted rebound was blocked by a Wisła player.
In response, Albert Rude's players raced towards the opponent's penalty area, but their finishing was lacking. As the match drew to a close, the Kraków team were increasingly visible around the opposition's penalty area. Unfortunately, Rodado's shot in the 70th minute fell just short of the goal. However, that wasn't the end of Rodado's attempts, as he first hit the crossbar and then struck the post. Just before the break, Dawid Szot was shown a red card for a foul on an opponent, leaving Kraków with ten men.
