He certainly did not remember the last game for Southampton. Despite the fact that the Polish team defeated Swansea 3-2 after extra time and advanced to the fourth round of the FA Cup,.
Although Bednarek erased the stain in the match with Swansea, because it was his interception that started the decisive action, on Tuesday the Pole reminded that he was also very dangerous at the opponent’s goal.
Another goal by Bednarek in the Premier League
Already in the 5th minute of the league match against Brentford, the Polish representative scored a 1-0 goal. Bednarek was the fastest and smartest in the visitors’ penalty area after a corner by James Ward-Prowes.
For Bednarek, this is the third goal this season in the 18th appearance. The Pole also scored the third goal in the last five league appearances! On December 1, Bednarek scored a goal against Leicester City (2: 2), and on December 26 he defeated Łukasz Fabiański in a game against West Ham United (3: 2).
Bednarek has also become a lonely leader in the classification of the most effective Poles in the history of the Premier League. The former player of Lech Poznań has six goals and Mateusz Klich, the midfielder of Leeds United, jumped over this classification.
The most effective Poles in the Premier League:
- Jan Bednarek – 6 goals
- Mateusz Klich – 5 goals
- Marcin Wasilewski, Robert Warzycha, Matty Cash – 1 gol
Southampton’s lead against Brentford, however, was only 18 minutes. In the 23rd minute, after Bryan Mbeumo’s pass, Vitaly Janelt scored the 1-1 goal. The next minutes, however, belonged to the hosts, who ultimately won 4-1, and further goals were scored for them: Alvaro Fernandez (own), Armando Broja and Che Adams.
After 20 queues, Southampton is 11th in the table with 24 points. Bednarek’s team will play another match on Saturday, when they face Wolverhampton Wanderers away.
