On Saturday, in the Polish Ekstraklasa, Gornik and Jagiellonia faced off, with 14,921 spectators in attendance at the stadium in Zabrze, where two players from Slovenia also took to the field. On the left side of Gornik’s defense, the captain and Slovenian international Erik Janža played, while on the right side of the visitors’ defense from Bialystok, Dušan Stojinović worked hard. In the end, Erik Janža was much more satisfied as he and his teammates defeated the contender for the Polish championship title.
Erik Janža also made it into the statistics, as in the 24th minute, he cleverly delivered a free-kick from the left side to the edge of the penalty area, where Damian Rasak struck the ball and scored. The player from Prekmurje, who received a rating of 7.1 from SofaScore, played the full match, while Dušan Stojinović (rated 6.7) was substituted out in the 89th minute.
Gornik is currently in seventh place in the Ekstraklasa, but they are only five points behind third-placed Pogoń, the club of Luka Zahović. Meanwhile, Jagiellonia is in a high second place, making the defeat to Gornik all the more painful. The leading team, Slask from Wrocław, has a three-point lead. Nevertheless, the battle for the Polish championship title is still very much alive.
