King Josue, Legia is enjoying a “relegation match”. Five goals at £ azienkowska

The players, winning the outstanding duel of the fifth round, had a chance to jump back from the relegation zone. The guests, on the other hand, were hoping for another sensation in the away match, because over a week ago they defeated Cracovi 2-1 in Krakow.

The best first half of Legia this season

The hosts played again without Artur Boruc omitted. Cezary Miszta stood between the posts, as in the previous five games. On the bench he was acquired a few weeks ago – Austrian Richard Strebinger. Maik Nawrocki also returned to the starting eleven after a card pause.

Legia Warszawa put together in this way was definitely better after the weaker first quarter, in which it gave the initiative to rivals. Contrary to the last game at home, the 1-0 win against Śląsk, Wrocław started to create favorable opportunities faster. She could have scored two goals in two minutes. Both after the actions on the right side. First, Mattias Johansson crossed the cross, he shot from six meters, but he perfectly saved Paweł Pauluczenka. Moments later, Lopes was shooting his head this time, but Pauluczenka did well again.

Legia Warszawa achieved their goal in the 26th minute. In the middle of the field, Bartosz Ślisz intercepted the ball, Lopes distributed the action and crossed towards Tomas Pekhart. The ball was wrong – Wiktor Biedrzycki struck 18 meters. There Josue found himself and scored with a precise shot.

Eleven minutes later, Ślisz made a great perpendicular play to, the latter being one-on-one with the goalkeeper. However, the Legia winger did not shoot, but played to Pekhart, who hit an empty goal. Just before the break, the hosts decided the result of this part. After a great cross from the right side of Josue, Mateusz Wieteska scored the third goal with the head.

For the Portuguese it was the ninth assist this season and he is leading in this classification in the league. Interestingly, Josue assisted Wieteska’s four goals this season.

– This is probably our best first half this season – said Bartosz Kapustka, recovering from an injury, for Canal + Sport during the break.

It is also worth adding that the guests with a score of 0: 1 had a great opportunity to compensate. David Domgjoni won the duel with Wszołek on the left side. He played for the fifth meter to Tomas Poznar, but he missed the bar badly.

Pekhart used the goalkeeper’s kix

For a very long time nothing interesting happened in the second half. It was only in the 72nd minute that the goalkeeper Pauluczenka made a fatal error while delivering the ball. He passed directly to Pekhart’s feet by 16 meters. He accepted the ball and scored his second goal in this match with a precise shot with his left foot.

In the last minute, the guests scored an honorary goal. Putivtsev scored strongly, precisely from 18 meters from the free kick. Miszta failed to hit the ball.

After this victory, Legia Warszawa moved up to the eleventh place in the table. He has seven points advantage over the relegation zone. she is still the last one, and she loses five points to the safe zone.
