WISŁA KRAKÓW 0-3 BRUK-BET TERMALICA: The Season Ends in Defeat

In the final 34th round of the Fortuna 1 Liga, Wisła Kraków faced Bruk-Bet Termalica Nieciecza at their home stadium. For the White Star, this match was crucial in the context of advancing to the playoffs for the Ekstraklasa. Despite expectations, the match ended with a score of 0:3, and the team from R22 finished the season in 10th place in the table.

The visitors did not come to Kraków to defend. Coach Brosz’s players started with a high line and aggressive pressing, resulting in their first shot on target, but Anton Chichkan confidently caught the ball. Wisła held the ball longer as the game progressed. In the 17th minute, Baena's run down the right wing led to a foul, a yellow card, and a close-range free kick, but the ball ended up in Loska’s hands.

In the 25th minute, the referee consulted the VAR and issued Marc Carbó a direct red card, leaving Wisła with 10 men. Misfortune continued as David Juncà was injured in the 35th minute and had to be stretchered off. The first half ended goalless despite bold offensive actions from both sides, with 3 minutes added due to VAR and the substitution.

Wisła Kraków made forced tactical changes for the second half, bringing Igor Sapała into the midfield. Encouraged to fight for playoff goals, Wisła's efforts were bold, but Termalica scored first. A long-distance shot hit the post, and Maciej Wolski's rebound made it 0:1 in the 53rd minute. Wisła sought an equaliser, but Wolski scored again in the 73rd minute, making it 0:2. Despite throwing all offensive players into the fray, Wisła couldn't turn the tide, and Jakub Wróbel set the final score at 0:3 in the 89th minute.
