Legia Warszawa
Legia Warszawa showed plenty of attacking ambition, firing 14 shots and earning 6 corners, but were left frustrated by their inability to test the opposition keeper, managing just one shot on target all evening. Their 3-4-3 setup provided width and numbers in advanced areas, yet a lack of composure in the final third proved costly. Defensively, Legia looked solid for much of the contest, but a late lapse allowed Górnik to equalize at the death. Four yellow cards highlighted their combative approach, but ultimately, it was a missed opportunity to claim all three points at home.
