At 37 every good afternoon gets called a throwback, and this one was: 8.27, and nobody on the pitch better.

Nobody wants to play Legia right now
3 wins in a row changes how opponents warm up: quieter, more glances across. Runs end, everybody knows that — but nobody in this dressing room is planning for it.

Gaëtan Laborde in a row with a teammate
It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Legia this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Bartosz Kapustka has a hand in both — 7.95
One scored and one made, which is a different afternoon from scoring twice and an easier one to overlook. Marked 7.95, and involved in 2 of his side's goals.

Ask anyone on the way out what separated the sides and you will get one name: Bartosz Kapustka. 2‑0 against Gornik Leczna, and the applause at the whistle was mostly his.

The manager’s verdict
“I am not going to get carried away and I will not let them either. It was a good day. There will be harder ones.” Szymon Blaszczykowski kept it short after the 2‑0 win, which is what managers do when they are happy.
