A defender's goal wins it for Lech — 7.88
1 for Terry Yegbe, marked 7.88, and a centre-half's name in the part of the report he normally only reaches by mistake. He will not be allowed to forget it in the dressing room for a month.

Krzysztof Frankowski steps up from the Lech academy
There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. Krzysztof Frankowski has been at this club since he was a boy and is now, formally, one of the first-team squad — which for a local readership beats any signing of any size.
