From the north of Poland with a draw: Arka - Wisła 1:1
The match of the round, played in Gdynia, ended in a 1-1 draw. Wisła was forced to share the points with Arka, with Szymon Sobczak scoring the goal for the Kraków team in the 75th minute.
The match in Gdynia was intense from the very first minutes. Arka first had their chances, including a free kick, and then Wisła tried to strike back on the counterattack, but to no avail. In the ninth minute, the White Star had a chance from a free kick. However, Bregu first sent the ball into the wall, and then Krzyżanowski fired it over the bar. Unfortunately, 180 seconds later, the Yellow-Blues took the lead through Olaf Kobacki, who finished off the home side's attack. It all started when Dawid Szot lost possession, and his attempt to rectify the error proved fruitless.
After the goal, Arka refused to relent in their attacks, although the Kraków team also attempted to break through to the opponent's penalty area, but without much success. The 22nd minute brought another threat in the White Star's penalty area following a corner kick, but fortunately, Alvaro Ratón intervened in time.
That wasn't the end of the home side's threats. In the 33rd minute, Raton's free kick and Czubak's shot found the net again, but the referee ruled it offside. The final period of the game didn't change the complexion of the game. Arka remained dominant, and the R22 players had to wait until the second half for their chances.
Two different halves
The second half of the match saw Janusz Gol's shot on target, which was saved by Alvaro Raton. Arka Gdynia played a bit lower down the pitch, and the Kraków team were creating more opportunities, but execution was a problem. Duda had a chance, firing a shot into the side netting. Fifteen minutes before the end of the second half, Szymon Sobczak arrived on the pitch and proved to be the receiving keeper. The striker quickly finished off a three-man move with Rodado and Alfaro.
The final minutes of the match were even, with both teams fighting fiercely for the win. Three minutes before the end of the match, Sobczak missed a perfect opportunity, effectively stopped by an Arka defender.
