It's another victory for Mariusz Jop's team! The league leaders strengthen their position after winning in Głogów thanks to a goal from Angel Rodado. The Wisła coach commented on the match.

"As usual, I congratulate the team on their victory at a very difficult terrain. I think that today, apart from having a lot of quality, we showed above all, good game organization, determination, ambition. These are the qualities which are very important. We know that the foundation of our game is playing defensively. We're doing it well. Today we were very effective in terms of defending set pieces, there were a lot of them. The opponent took over in the second half initiative, of course we lacked a little more peace at this point the ball and taking advantage of the moments we had in the transition phase, because that's could have ended this match earlier. Well done to the team, another match without conceding a goal. Big congratulations and thank you," the coach summed up the match in Głogów. Jop.

Wisła did not score a second goal in the second half and the score crept in a bit nervous. "Of course, some set pieces could have been saved avoid. As I said - in situations where the opponent attacks with a large number players, is in our half, in the transition phase we have to use these moments, because we had them. For example, the Duarte situation. You just have to score. It's a pity, because this player would definitely go up, and this confidence he escapes from himself. I missed that, because there are moments, there will be moments, that we will consciously go a little lower in order to use the space that is available behind. It's not easy - he plays in a positional attack and we wanted here take advantage of this situation. We failed to do it, we didn't do it in second half. But despite this, we achieved this victory in a very difficult area. I would like to remind you that Chrobry was a team that was very strongly They won four games in a row and it's no coincidence that so many points. They are in good shape as a team and individually as well. physical and also in terms of game organization. It's clear that this team is making progress and It will certainly be very difficult for anyone to get any points here.” – described the White Star trainer.

Chrobry didn't create any clear-cut chances. "Apart from set pieces and long-distance shots, I don't remember there was such a clear situation where we would have been happy that the rival did not took advantage of it. You could rather say it was under control. However, of course every set piece is dangerous and today we did good work in defense. You have to be happy. I told the team that after the match, that scoring points regularly is achieved by playing well defensively. is the foundation of our game, we have quality in attack, but also good we function as a team in defense and here a huge amount of work is done and Rodado, and Julius, and those who are high up. They work hard for the team and from that too we use both the goalkeeper and the defenders because we are a collective and it is very important." – said the coach.

A question about the changes made. Did the coach take the timing into account? match? "It's definitely a very important element that I take into account when making changes. In a situation where the match is close and there is a lot of individual fighting, a lot duels, we want to avoid a situation in which a player saves the situation will have to foul. These were the main arguments for the change. However, "Krzyżu" He also increased our height in terms of marking in the penalty area. Strózik came in and If it weren't for this change, he would probably have to be covered by James or Duarte, so This height advantage would be very large, and Krzyżu could take over this role." – concluded coach Mariusz Jop.
