GKS Katowice is the second best team in Ekstraklasa in 2026. Moreover, Katowiczanie at Nowa Bukowa have built a real fortress. Six wins and a draw in seven home spring matches is an achievement that gives Rafał Górak's team a chance to play in European cups. Jagiellonia Białystok, on the other hand, has secured a third consecutive season in Europe. The Polish champions from two years ago are continuing their best era in the club's history. And with a high C, the match began with Gieksa. The first action ended with a goal for the hosts. The scorer could not be anyone else - Bartosz Nowak from five meters defeated Sławomir Abramowicz, scoring his ninth goal in the current season. The offensive midfielder also recorded 11 assists, which puts him in the top of the Ekstraklasa's Canadian classification. After a quarter of an hour, Jagiellonia took the initiative and until the end of the first half, the visitors controlled the course of events on the pitch. Already in the 18th minute, Jesus Imaz could have equalized. The Spaniard took a shot after a pass from Afimico Pululu. The ball after the rebound hit the crossbar. The offensive game brought results after half an hour of play. Borja Galan kicked the ball out for a corner. From the corner of the field, the ball was centered by Sergio Lozano, and in the penalty area, the highest jumped Bernardo Vital. The Portuguese defender headed the ball past Strączka, equalizing the score. Until the end of the first half, the guests were looking for chances to take the lead, but it did not happen. After the break, the picture of the match did not change - Jagiellonia was still dominating and more and more boldly coping under Gieksa's goal. The hosts began to get lost. Adam Zrelak was hit in the hand in the penalty area, but there was no question of awarding a penalty. A moment later, Paweł Raczkowski pointed to the spot 11 meters from Strączka's goal. Vital played very cleverly. The Portuguese player entered before Nowak, when he wanted to kick the ball away from Gieksa's penalty area. The midfielder hit his opponent's leg, and the referee did not hesitate and ordered a penalty kick. After VAR analysis, the decision was upheld. Pululu deceived the home team's goalkeeper, putting Jagiellonia in the lead. The loss of the second goal was a signal for Gieksa to wake up. Galan played very well. In the 74th minute, the Spaniard entered the penalty area, but made a slight mistake. Four minutes later, he did not give Abramowicz a chance - and what a way! After a great shot from outside the penalty area, the ball bounced off the crossbar, the post, and then landed in the net. This is a candidate for the goal of the season! Marcel Wędrychowski envied his colleague's wonderful goal and wanted to effectively defeat the visiting team's goalkeeper, but the ball flew just past the post. Strączka, on the other hand, was tested by Eryk Kozłowski. The Jagiellonia player sent a powerful shot from outside the penalty area, but the Gieksa goalkeeper played well.
