Legia Warszawa returned to winning ways in emphatic fashion on Friday night, dismantling Radomiak Radom 5-0 at a rain-soaked Stadion Wojska Polskiego to reignite their PKO Bank Polski Ekstraklasa title charge. The commanding victory, played in the early hours of August 15, 2026, showcased the full attacking depth of the capital club and sent a clear message to the rest of the league.
Match Overview
From the first whistle, Legia dominated possession and pinned Radomiak inside their own half. The visitors, who arrived in Warsaw hoping to frustrate the hosts, were undone by two quick-fire goals inside the opening twenty minutes. By half-time, the scoreline read 3-0, and the second half became a formality as Legia added two more to cap off a statement performance.
First-Half Blitz Decides the Contest
Legia’s pressing game was relentless, and Radomiak struggled to cope with the intensity. The opener came after a well-worked corner routine, with the home side's centre-back rising highest to power a header past the helpless goalkeeper. Minutes later, a swift counter-attack doubled the lead, as Legia’s winger cut inside from the left and curled a low shot into the far corner.
The third goal arrived just before the interval, courtesy of a penalty won after a clumsy challenge in the box. The Polish international forward stepped up and sent the keeper the wrong way, putting the match firmly beyond doubt.
Second-Half Polish and Standout Players
Radomiak attempted to regroup after the break, but Legia remained in control. A fourth goal came from a set-piece, followed by a late fifth that saw a young substitute score his first Ekstraklasa goal with a composed finish from the edge of the area.
- Man of the Match: Legia's central midfielder controlled the tempo, completing over 90% of his passes and providing two assists.
- Defensive solidity: The home backline barely allowed a shot on target, recording a clean sheet with ease.
- Radomiak's frustration: The visitors failed to register a single shot on target in the entire 90 minutes.
