It was a nightmare evening for Legia Warszawa fans. The team failed again all along the line and lost at their own stadium to a direct rival in the fight for relegation – Warta Poznań 0: 1. The Sunday game was accompanied by a lot of emotions that could be felt both on the pitch and in the stands.
These were especially influenced by the players of the Legia, who clearly cannot cope with the pressure accompanying the fight for maintenance. He proved it with his behavior in the second half of the meeting. An experienced goalkeeper pushed David Szymonowicz in the penalty area, for which he received a red card and had to leave the field. The judge dictated the penalty, but Adam Zrelak did not use it.
The struggle to keep going. The drama of Legia
Warta’s striker missed a fatal shot, but Legia was unable to take advantage of this chance anyway. The players from Warsaw were unable to equalize and fell to the penultimate place in the table. Behind them is only Bruk-Bet, who is only three points behind Vukovic’s team. On the other hand, the players from Poznań have left the relegation zone and are currently in the 14th place.
The guard in the relegation zone was replaced by Zagłębie Lubin, which is doing terrible at the beginning of the spring round. The last three places in the table are also approaching, which is in an equally disastrous form as the likes of Lublin. The fight for maintenance is getting more and more interesting and everything indicates that Legia Warszawa will be involved in it until the end of the tournament. The Polish champions, however, can count on the weakness of their rivals.
In the lead of the table, however, nothing has changed. The leader is still two points ahead of Pogoń Szczecin and four points ahead of Raków Częstochowa.
