Less than three minutes had passed and it could have been 1: 1. First, a good opportunity was wasted by Dimitar Mitrovski, who shot from half a turn, and a moment later Conrado missed the perfect pass by Łukasz Zwoliński, who hit the side net from close range. And when it seemed that an exciting spectacle awaited us, the match was interrupted. The judge had no choice, because there was a brawl among the football fans. And a serious one.
“Today, instead of experiencing a football holiday together with Lechia’s fans, a handful of hooligans interrupted the match. We unequivocally condemn their behavior in the stands. The services immediately took action, securing monitoring and identifying the perpetrators. The judge and the delegate decided that the match would resume. We appeal for peace in the stands.” – informed the announcer. At 9 p.m., ie after 40 minutes, the meeting resumed.
And ten minutes later Lechia took the lead. Conrado consciously fought the ball in the rivals’ penalty area and served an excellent pass along the goal, who does not waste such situations.
In the 25th minute it was already 2: 0. This time Flavio passed, and the action was finished by Łukasz Zwoliński, who passed the goalkeeper and directed the ball into the empty goal. Even before the break it was 3: 0. Zwoliński brilliantly played to the 37-year-old Portuguese, who scored his second goal.
What happened after you changed sides?
In the 54th minute Kuciak corrected the mistake of Rafał Pietrzak, who lost the ball to Gjorgjievski, with a fantastic intervention. The replays showed that when the striker of the Akademija Pandev club fired, Michał Nalepa fouled him. But the judge did not see it, and VAR is not in the Conference League qualifiers.
In the 66th minute, Flavio completed a hat-trick with a powerful close-up shot. A moment later he could have had a fourth goal, but the ball bounced off the post after his technical hit.
At the end of the match, Joković scored an honorary hit for the Macedonians, who skilfully used the corner from the corner. Thus, Lechia won in Gdańsk 4: 1. The rematch will take place next week in North Macedonia.
