A result that inspires respect

Marek Babson drinks the European cream of what he’s been working on at Raku over the years.

This consistency is respectable. This was also the case at Trnava, especially during the first hour of the match. in the end match Rako, who led 2-0, lowered the tone a bit, but Babszon kept some important players off the field (Leedermann, Doviak and then Gotkowskis, or the sensational Lopez, who scored twice).

The current European campaign against cancer in Europe can be impressive. First of all, Poland now owes mainly to Rakow the fact that it scored points in the national rating more than three and four seasons, in the years when Polish clubs could not reach the group stage of the European Cups. In the current version, with a set of three wins, Raków has contributed to this ranking with more points than any other Polish team. Let’s add that, in theory, it was possible to score more points, for example, Lech, who played in the qualifying rounds of the first round. However, the players from Poznan have only 2 wins, 1 draw, 2 losses and They will have to recoup the losses with the Vikingur in return.

Secondly, as counted and posted by fans on Twitter, Raków is one of the best Polish debutants in the history of European Cups, after the first 8 matches, and alongside Legia, he has the highest winning percentage in these matches.

Then Raku scored six goals in the tournament with the strong Astaną, recent participant Champions League or the European League.

A decade ago they had a worse league than Poland, until they jumped to a different level. Lycia has a problem

Slavia, besides Raku, is the only one among the most goal-scoring teams that have not lost a goal in this competition so far. The taste of the whole story was added by the fact that it was the vice-champion of the Czech Republic who could be Czestochowa’s opponent in the fourth and decisive round of el. LKE. On Thursday, Slavia won the first match of the third round with Panathinaikos of Athens, just like Raku, 2:0.
